Dark Buster knocked this out of the part with his or her post. However I would like to add a few things .

How weighty the story is matters two. Bill and Ted is a stupid movie. We know it is stupid and love it for it. So when something doesn't add up in that movie it is ok. It is just Bill and tell. However endgame in the culmination of a decade of the movies, TVs and the like. And your time travel seemingly has holes in it. People are going to question.

And the big thing that messes shit up is a Steve staying the past. This just messes so much shit up.
to be honest, I don't think it's that complex.

All endgame needed to do to get rid of this problem is say "we don't know what will happen if we do this. Its never been done before."

Like, have guesses, and theories, and TRY to correct everything for a clean closed-loop. But just admit that possible divergences are just thing you aren't equipped to speak on. No Bruce telling all these hard and fast rules, no Ancient One spelling out the path of the multiverse. Just admit you don't know the consequences, and say "fuck it, let's take the risk."

Boom. Suddenly any time travel fuckery doesn't matter anymore. and very few people will care, because their eyes are on Thanos and not your funky rules. Then you can have all KINDS of fun with the fallout.
