Also, where did the shield at the end come from? Thanos broke the vibranium shield. Cap's shield is frozen in ice from 1945 to 2011, and he can't steal it from his younger self as his younger self would need it to keep the timeline intact. It would make more sense (to me) if it were an alternate reality, and then after Peggy's death, Old Steve made the jump back into the original timeline, bringing with him his shield & simply lying low until 2023, presenting himself the moment after his younger self time traveled.

Also also, if it's the same timeline as ours like you were saying, BEJT, that it cannot be changed & that all this time there have been 2 Cap's in our timeline, one frozen, one hidden, and then the frozen one dethawed while time traveling Cap remained hidden, living with Peggy... what, Cap didn't stop HYDRA? He didn't stop the Starks' assassination? Didn't stop Bucky from being brainwashed & tortured?

You give a lot of thought to the timeline that I greatly appreciate but that splinter blip thing doesn't hold up.
