What? Capt. America, Hulk, Thor, Ant-Man and Dr. Strange all had 1 movie before appearing in a team-up. Scarlet Witch, Vision, Black Panther and Spider-Man even debuted in team-up movies.

What's different for Captain Marvel?

All of those characters either had multiple solo movies, or multiple team-up movies, prior to Endgame. Captain Marvel, basically, only had one. So they should have built on her with a solo focus after that, instead of continuing to relegate her to team-up movies. The only exemption is I think Dr. Strange, but he immediately followed up Endgame with a solo movie. That's what should have happened with Captain Marvel.

EDIT: And, yes, I get MoM did introduce new characters, but Dr. Strange was still the focal point, and he also appeared in a Spiderman movie.

EDIT EDIT: And, to be clear, I'm specifically using Endgame as a "cutoff," here, because that's clearly when the story shifted, and a lot of the previous heroes that carried movies are now gone. I'm not saying "Appearing in a solo movie and then a team-up" is bad. I'm saying it's bad in the context of where they are in the story, since Endgame was such a dramatic shift.
