I think also by the end, he'll have lived for 200+ years. He was already 100 years old before Endgame. Put on another 5 years between Thanos fights and an additional 60+ years in a different reality. He's been alive for a long time. He's not even dead yet.

My theory, is that Steve reappeared in the main MCU time line at the exact second he disappeared from the pad. My reasoning is this: since his future had not yet occurred, then once he reached the exact time he left on his time mission his realities merged again. I think he lived out that entire alternate life and then made his way to that cabin and bench by the lake and sat down, maybe a minute before he originally left. Bucky, Sam, and Bruce didn't notice Steve popping back into their timeline because they were looking at the pad.

Best answer so far. Basically, the time travel in Endgame is inconsistent and makes no sense at all.

Bucky, Sam, and Bruce didn't notice Steve popping back into their timeline because they were looking at the pad. One theory is could be Cap actually returns to the present during the time when the other Avengers are in the past, time travel via the quantum realm seems to require one point being opened via the pad or whatever the van was, so Steve would need to return via an opening generated with the device, which wouldn't make sense with the theory you had because Steve if he returned exactly when he left he would have to arrive exactly where he left from so he wouldn't be able to sneak up on them, so either imo he would need to have come from an alternate timeline but arrived back during the time heist when no one was around, that or he went back to the past of his own timeline Terminator style and was the husband Peggy spoke of but we never saw.
The Terminator idea makes the most sense to me, the only "issue" with it is the shield which really isn't an issue, Cap had 70 years to get a replacement made, or the broke one fixed, he could have pinched it from an alternate timeline, may not even be vibranium, could be adamantium we just don't know, but so many viable explanation to how he got a new shield that it really shouldn't be considered an issue imo.

It sounds like the same mechanism that repairs a broken timeline when an infinity stone is returned to the moment in which it was removed.
