History Headscratchers / CaptainAmericaCivilWar

*** Could be he blames [[spoiler: Wanda, as it seems her powers affected Vision's. Could explain why Tony doesn't help Wanda after he sees she's being kept inside an isolated cell. Later she's even seen in a straightjacket.]]

-->[snip] "It’s the first thing I did when I got the Avengers [film] gig was write just scans of pages of arguments between Captain America and Iron Man, just sort of laying out who their characters were by how they couldn’t stand each other."
** To me that reads he had no specific intentions of making the MCU versions of these characters close 'friends'.
** It is entirely possible to still care deeply about someone you personally don't like being around. Plus, that's about Film/TheAvengers; Steve and Tony have had years to get to know one another better (and years for their underlying issues to start boiling over).

** There's also the fact that, like most of the Avengers do in some way, Peter has ChronicHeroSyndrome. It's entirely possible he tried to sign up and Tony figures that as long as Spidey wants to get involved, it's best Tony do his best to keep him safe.[[note]]What's more surprising is that a millennial would opt to support the side supporting increased government oversight.[[/note]]

** Based on the Trailer the downtime parts of the story are Cap and Falcon locating Bucky and uncovering a Hydra plan. The Anti Reg heroes might be part of it too, but it's primarly a Captain America story. Iron Man is the antagonist and the other Pro Reg heroes are only going to show during fight scenes.

** Unknown. In Age of Ultron he's hanging around in New York and later goes to help Fury get his Helicarrier back in the air and assists the Avengers as War Machine before joining up with the team at the end. He shouldn't be able to do any of that if he's on duty at his stationed base on the West Coast. In this film his War Machine armor is lacking the US AF markings he usually has too, suggesting he's out of the air force for the moment.

** I would say its a combination of Ross having friends in high places (which was how he got the revised super soldier serum in the first place I think), people in government thinking he was right about the Hulk being the property of the government or the threat Banner posed justified in the actions/crimes he committed, Ross blamed Blonsky for how out of control things got, Hydra strings being pulled (they might see him as being useful tool in the future for creating chaos or containing the Hulk), and good old dislike of Stark (who has been unpopular with the U.S. government since he started doing Iron Man thing) and Banner to take their word seriously, and some cover up. I'm sure Ross getting in this position and escaping punishment despite everything he did is going to be used to add fuel to why Cap doesn't think governments should have full control of the superhero crowd.
** Also we all know this, but who in universe knows all that he inadvertently caused with the Abomination and his rough tactics with Hulk except Banner himself, who's not there. Ross's reputation is solid, and nobody on the Avengers knows anything beyond he used to try to take in their friend when he ran around smashing stuff up.

** People may not know the full details, but they are still scared, and it's easy to spread such things via the Internet - SHIELD being unraveled is equal to the Army undergoing the same, which would result in a loss of safety, increases in fear/anger/blame, and so forth. By-and-large, this would increase overall with each incident, but they're not the ones blaming the heroes; the officials + political people like Ross are, using the people's fear as fuel to do something about these events before anymore happen. Stopping Loki, taking down SHIELD, destroying the empty Sokovia, those were fairly-reasonable actions that would have prevented even more deaths... but something must still be done, and/or take the blame, in their reasoning.

** Spider-Man has more physical skills than any avenger and his superpowers also hive the team a huge advantage, so when it comes to this and taking in count that he has fought more villains than any other it's pretty reasonable that Tony wanted him in his team no mather how old he is.

*** Considering the suit we saw is the one that was made by Tony, he had to know Peters exact meassurements to make it. Even if visually with a costume Peter might pass for a small adult, there's no way that he would without it.

*** People have no idea Stark created Ultron, that Wanda influenced him, or that the battle of New York was caused because of Loki's anger towards Thor. Plus the loss of SHIELD is likely not a price too high to save the life of potencially millions of people.
