Its Pretty Obvious Isn't It? It's What We Were Actually Told In The Film. Nothing Wrong With Him Showing
Its pretty obvious isn't it? It's what we were actually told in the film. Nothing wrong with him showing up on the bench. We don't know what device they used for time travel in that reality.
If Steve ended up in an alternate timeline with Peggy, he would have come back through the time machine, not be sitting on the park bench which heavily implies he inserted himself into his own timeline and married his Peggy, thereby wiping out her husband who he saved according to Peggy in a video in TWS. He let Bucky suffer for all those years. It is something I have been thinking about. Steve never lived his life in an alternate timeline because he never came back through the time machine.
I really don’t think the movie supports this. Bruce very specifically says changing the past does not change your future. So that says right there that this theory doesn’t hold water. Otherwise they could have killed Thanos as a baby, like Rhodey suggested, and changed everything. But even if what you say was the case, and Steve went back in the main MCU timeline and left Bucky with HYDRA and married Peggy and erased her life, then the present would be different. Nothing would have happened as it did, so what are the odds Sam and Buck and Bruce would be there just as they were? Would this moment have even happened? Steve would have been old during the fight with the Chitauri and TWS and CW and IW. He could never have done anything that he did. Everything would be wildly different. He couldn’t just change Peggy’s timeline and leave everything else to happen the exact same way to lead them to that moment. All these characters are way too pivotal to the story for that to make sense.
So I think it’s way more likely he created an alternate timeline. Maybe the Hank Pym of his timeline sent him back? Maybe Dr. Strange did it? He already deals in the multiverse. He looked through 14 million iterations of the multiverse in IW, after all. The point is there are explanations that work. Also, sometimes writers explain things after the fact. Sometimes they leave it open for a reason or because they want the audience to interpret it. And sometimes you have to work the plot as best you can around the important, emotional scene you want (old Steve returning to give Sam his shield). It doesn’t always work entirely. But, to me, this does. And Bucky absolutely knew Steve’s plan. Which means to me Steve had his blessing.
Time travel shenanigans always lead to this 😊 Just my take. I have seen some really good meta on alternate timelines and realities and the multiverse. Maybe someone wants to add?

Pet peeve time: for the contingent out there who sneer at heroes like Superman and Wonder Woman and Captain America, those icons who still, at their core, represent selfless sacrifice for the greater good, and who justify their contempt by saying, oh, it’s so unrealistic, no one would ever be so noble… grow up. Seriously. Cynicism is not maturity, do not mistake the one for the other. If you truly cannot accept a story where someone does the right thing because it’s the right thing to do, that says far more about who you are than these characters.

Wow. This is so right
This is so cute. And Tony with his tech. Would be cool to see all of them
Oh my god can I just like?? Say how ABSOLUTELY FUCKING AMAZING it is that in Avengers Assemble STEVE has a PAINTING of NATASHA SMILING.
Like a GENUINE smile not a smirk which is what’s usually on her face. It’s like, he got to see her smile so genuine and bright and he. Just. Had. To. Paint it.
BEAUTIFUL. 😍
It’s such a simple letter I’m amazed at the lack of comprehension from people. But really. Some think that it’s very selfish letter (whatever that means), some think that he blames Tony for everything in this letter or trying to make him feel guilty (???) and some even think that “Steve begs Tony to take him back” (wtf?). I have actually seen all those versions on tumblr and ao3.

Captain America: The Winter Soldier Audio Commentary:
“If you’re not a comic book fan, when you think ‘Captain America’, you probably think ‘jingoist’, a propaganda piece. But if you know the comics, every time something happens in the world, he gets to address it: the hippies, the civil rights movement, the Watergate. And our MCU Cap missed all that, he missed 9/11. So he gets to address where we are now without having seen what forced us to make these decisions. He did not have the same slow descent into the cynicism that we all had over the last 40 years. He comes out with fresh eyes. One of the great things in the comics that we hoped to replicate in the movie is that his reaction is never the sort of knee-jerk old man conservative reaction you would think the man dressed in an American flag would have. He exemplifies the spirit of America, not a party, not a government. He’s never going to fall on a political line. He stands for an ideal and he stands for principles that are translatable across the board. What he is against in this film is subversion, subterfuge and lies, that line between freedom and fear.”
