Time travel exists. Even Terrans, a comparatively lower tech level race and do it.

The Time Stone is gone, which was the check on people fucking with time.

So, unchecked Time Travel exists.

Yeah, that's not great. Inventing time travel or curing death in a universe setting is usually a bad thing. It takes 'we can't fix this' to 'we wont fix this'.

There are consequences, but if it's a thing people will try it. Even just as information gathering powerful. It's the ultimate surveillance. Even if the past is static, there is a lot of upside to strategic time travel.

Time travel is one of those things that almost always breaks a world setting. It's a new front in every conflict and has to be considered.

I am struggling to find anything to like about how the film ended. None of the Original 6 had what I'd consider a satisfying ending. And Valkyrie is going to be a leader and stay in Norway instead of a fighter?

Some good points: Rescue was awesome. Butt jokes. The additional Avengers 1 era scenes were great. Tony's breakdown after getting back to Earth was realistic and well done.

I am still looking forward to Doctor Strange 2. I'd been looking forward to that more than Endgame. Still, Endgame threw a very wet blanket over my enthusiasm for MCU. The plot was a mess and all the characters I care about were treated badly, were barely in it or had their character development happen offscreen. Also, being in a theater that was constantly cracking up over Thor being fat was not a great experience for me.

Even putting the Tony stuff aside, that film just left me feeling bad.

... there's a Doctor Strange 2? So much for this film ending the franchise, I guess :/

I'm sorry you found it unsatisfying, but considering my love of time travel, it had a quick in for me.
