I was hoping she'd get inside his head and tear that up too but that part of her power-set appears to have been fully abandoned at this point!!

This is a great point. I think it could be somewhat handwaved that in the heat of battle she wouldn't have the time, and the subject being aware was also not helpful. After all, when Mantis attacked Thanos in IW, they needed a bunch of people holding him down and distracting him before she appears out of nowhere.

What a half-assed move.

Agreed.

Tangent: did everybody at his school get snapped?

Or at least many of the people important to him. Because yes, it's been 5 years and everyone else would have moved on by now.

Related: accounting for the snap is going to be a hell of a problem bureaucratically. Ages! Taxes? Property ownership?? Did the snap fix all the houses/cars/cities that got rundown with no people in them? Ugh, what a headache.

More than a headache, more like chaos even worse than the snap (where the worst part would have been the first month or so). What about all the people who have retrained to take on critical jobs when a lot of other people were lost? Five years was enough to scale down a lot of things (both intentionally and unintentionally, such as abandoned retail properties and industrial buildings). Now they'll have to scale up again. What happens to all those returned people being unemployed long enough for them to find work again? It could be years. It's easier for existing assets to be divided among fewer people than reduced ones distributed among more of them.

if Nebula wasn't a networked device we wouldn't be having this problem!

What a wonderful observation! Yes, an unobtrusive message but so pertinent.

Still mad no one who would have recognized Red Skull got to see - and then punch the face of - Red Skull!!!

Not onscreen no, but Steve had to return the soul stone...

Regarding Vision, I'll be very curious to see the story in that series because I can't see how he returns. I'm assuming it will cover the missing year in between Civil War and IW. Because Vision was partly created by the mind stone which was taken out of the time stream, and he was killed in battle rather than as part of the snap (like Loki).
