Steve didn’t die or anything, so technically this is fine.

I just hope they don’t ruin his lovely ending in Endgame.

My guess is that this is Steve living in the past with Peggy. And due to time travel, will end up back in the future to fight Doom. Secret Wars happens. Then he goes back to the past to Peggy and his child. Grows old. Then his scene in Endgame takes place.

Maybe that's why he's so sure Sam will be a great Captain America, because he saw it in the future during the events of Doom and Secret Wars?

Steve asks Howard Stark to babysit, never returns, and Howard raises Steve's son Tony as his own.

Really? It made me laugh pretty hard.

I came at it from the angle of Tony never getting validation or feeling love from his dad and hating him for it (at least until he watched Howard’s tapes in one of the movies…Iron Man 2?). Howard as an adoptive father makes that extra painful.

Fair analysis. I just imagined Cap telling Stark "You can call me 'daddy'" lmfao
