Avengers: Endgame's Biggest Unanswered Questions
video description
2. Yh its weird that the new gauntlet was left handed so that all those iron-man-left-arm scenes made sense
3. The snap gives viewers more of an indication that something has been done with the stones, but in-universe its probably the way the gauntlet activates them - thats the thing controlling and regulating them so some type of ignition would probably needed like the trigger/hammer of a gun. Plus, it ties in with the comics.
4. Read into how Marvel does timetravel - its different. Loki teleporting away in 2012 is probably due to his new TV show, or he might show up in GotG3
5. Like Q3's answer, the gauntlet is such a powerful weapon that it can control and regulate the stones so that its possible for certain people like Thanos to weild them - this is explained in IW when thor says the most powerful weapons in the universe are made on that star. Because of that, normal people can hold the gauntlet but not wear it - its also not impossible that Tony, being a genius, is able to very closely replicate the strength of the original gauntlet to continue this ability.
6. The world just perseveres.

Tony Stark says in a scene He knows for sure but he doesn't know how. Does that mean a future version or another version has time jumped and done the heist at the army base before and his memory of the event is being effected like how Nebula's memory was being effected by her future self's memory. If not then why did it only effect her and no one else and if that effected her then why didn't killing your past self effect her. How did Captain America bring back and return the Soul Stone and not be able to bring either Gomora or Black Widow back? When Dr Strange said to Tony Stark if I tell you then it won't happen but he did actually eventually tell him, did he mean in a future timeline he did tell Tony Stark they would win at that point in time and they ended up losing. How come Valkery ( I can't spell) weapon damaged the giant flying things armour but Iron Mans lazers couldn't in the First Avengers Movie. How does Thor's fake eye also glow electricity and finally how the hell do you snap your fingers with a glove on because I can't. Your questions as Puny and Tiny. Haha Thor. Look at the much bigger picture

The one thing I wonder about is why did the Avengers need to go back in time and get all 6 stones. Did the Avengers forget what Thanos did after Wanda destroyed the Mind-Stone at the end of Infinity War?
Thanos did not need to time travel to get the destroyed Mind-Stone back, Instead Thanos simply used the Time-Stone to reverse time and bring the Mind-Stone back into existence in the present.
My point is, if Thanos could bring the Mind-Stone back after Wanda destroyed it, then by the same logic the Avengers could simply have done the same to bring back all the Stones after Thanos destroyed them.
So why did the Avengers not do the same thing? All they needed to do was go back in Time just once and get the Time-Stone from the Ancient One. Then Avengers could use the Time-Stone to reverse Time and bring the other Stones back to the present time, exactly like Thanos did. Simple and no new battle with Thanos from 2014 needed. This has the added bonus of none of the Avengers needs to die, so Natasha and Tony would still be alive: -)
But Ok would have been a very short movie if they did that!

as for the second question about snapping with the infinity stones, it WAS answered in the comic's. The snap is more symbolic, the stones themselves offer infinite power but butting them into the hands of finite beings leads to them being used improperly. lust like with greater understanding of HER powers, scarlet witch could just vanish thanos into nothingness instantly. however, she doesn't have the knowledge to make that happen, so she sticks to manifesting her powers through physical means. you can also see this with how LITTLE thanos actually uses the stones in combat. in infinity wars he uses one stones power every once in a while while relying mostly on his strength to fight. there is an argument that he didn't have ALL the stones yet so he wasn't ALL powerful, but JUST with the reality stone alone he could have thought all MCU characters out of existence. why does he never do this? because he doesn't have the knowledge to utilize the stones to their potential. in short their just to mortal to realize snapping is a symbol and not a button.

The only way to make all this make sense again without using alternate reality theory is to change everything accordingly after rogers put the stones back to its original timeline.
Rogers never take the serum, this explain how rogers married with peggy and got old. wilson is always the real captain america, this explain why rogers gave the shield to him. natasha and tony died for whatever reason around the same time as endgame war, this explain their death. The snap never happen only the memory of it for those who did not get snapped to remind them not to mess with time or whatever appropriate reason, this explain how the world return to normal in far from home. Thanos never exist to begin with, this explain why there is no snap. Stones gathering never happen, this explain loki with space stone and how galactus will become the new villain.
There are more but this is what I can think of right now.

3: 50 You still don't understand time travel, you keep referring on Back to the Future. Remember when Loki was caught at the end of The Avengers? Following that movie is Thor II, where Loki is in prison. We see in Thor III that the Tessaract is in the vault, so even right after the Avengers movie, Loki picked up the Tessaract and teleported to who-knows-where, but eventually, he got caught by someone and sent back to earth, where the Tessaract then later appears in Odin's treasure again.
It is assumed that the future version of Captain America caught Loki and sent him back before or after he put the stones back into their timeline.
What I'm saying is that Loki's really gone, and the past cannot be changed no matter what's done to it. Why do you think the Avengers didn't just go and kill baby Thanos? Cause something would have stopped them from doing so.

50% of the world's population returning after being absent 5 years would cause almost as much chaos as their leaving it. The remaining 50% would certainly have annexed the property, possessions, jobs and houses of the departed - and new relationships will certainly have developed; all of a sudden a world that had downsized in transport, food production - well, production of everything, really - is required to provide the necessary resources to sustain an instant 100% increase in population. The systems that satisfied these requirements five years previously would be in no shape to take up where they left off, we see that what wasn't used was just abandoned and not maintained. Yes, the people are back, but only to face another huge crisis.

As soon as Loki disappeared with the tesseract and then NOTHING ELSE was mentioned about it for the rest of the movie, I was like Okay, cool. BUT WHERE IS LOKI? And since Thor saw Loki in prison on Asgard when they went to retrieve the other stone, that means the main timeline was unaffected. sooooo here's hoping they explain this in the Loki series that's coming up.
Also! My thought is. does this mean Sharon was Cap's granddaughter all along? Since his future was to married Peggy in the past this whole time, that means Sharon would also have to be his granddaughter since Peggy was married (now we know to him. That's complicates things SO MUCH.

Technically the chance of any human being wiped out from infinity war is very slim
because Thanos states that he will wipe out half of all LIVING things this mean that
Insects and other animals should count and say there is about 10 quintillion insects just
In The USA and half of that is just 5 quintillion which shouldnt even make a dent in human beings
Except for some unlucky people. Bust sense it wipes out some super heros and civilians it makes it action packed

The infinity gauntlet does what ever the possessor wishes, if the possessor thinks the initiation of the wish is a snap, then that is what it is. If they want to do a fist clench, like shown multiple times in Infinity War, or a wave, which also shown in Infinity War, both by Thanos, than that is what the activation method is. And seeing how they showed this in Infinity War, why is this question even on the list?
