It's frustrating the wrong answer is so mainstream. The stones were put back because the branch universe needs them not to destroy it or make it 1 to 1 with the original universe.
Apr 29, 2019 at 18:26 comment added Delioth @TheLethalCarrot There's no such thing as travelling back in your own timeline. Per the MCU, you always travel to an alternate reality with time travel. It's the most paradox-safe method to time travel, since you literally cannot create paradoxes, just new realities. We have no indication that alternate realities created via time travel are ever collapsed - just that they get put on a better track. The Ancient One isn't saying that the timeline she's in would be destroyed, just that it'd be better (since sans Time Stone, Dormammu consumes Earth in Dr. Strange Movie).

Apr 26, 2019 at 13:50 comment added TheLethalCarrot Thanos only disappeared after the stone left his timeline and therefore was in an alternative reality. I think a stone was taken from Loki's timeline to which would mean he could go back to "normal" but I can't remember properly.
Apr 26, 2019 at 13:46 comment added LP154 How can it work ? By putting the stones back in that alternate reality, how could it fix the fact that Loki escaped ? Or that Thanos disappeared ? etc. The only way to avoid paradox in endgame is if the alternate reality still exists as of today. If there is no reality where Thanos disappeared, how could he be at the end of the movie fighting the Avengers ?
Apr 26, 2019 at 13:45 comment added TheLethalCarrot I don't think this is correct the alternate reality for the past is the one we see in the film, when Cap puts the stones back that alternate reality is destroyed and things continue on as we saw them previously.
