There’s a huge problem with ‘Falcon and the Winter Soldier’ that no one’s talking about

Halfway through WandaVision, I told you what the show had a glaring plot hole: there were absolutely no Avengers ready to come in and help SWORD deal with the Westview situation. That was even more annoying given the timeline of events, as WandaVision takes place just three weeks after Endgame. I expected Marvel to “fix” the situation in the second half of the show, as one Avenger was rumored to show up in the finale. But Doctor Strange (Benedict Cumberbatch) never made it. That was even more annoying once we learned that an unknown witch named Agatha Harkness (Kathryn Hahn) came to Westview after detecting the energy from Wanda's magic.

It all seemed as if Marvel went out of its way to hide the Avengers without explaining why more professional help wasn’t available to the authorities assisting in Westview. Marvel’s boss Kevin Feige did say that the TV shows aren’t mandatory for understanding the movies, but WandaVision was too far removed. Fast forward to the middle of The Falcon and the Winter Soldier, and the show suffers from a similar plot hole. This time, Marvel is going out of its way to hide another normal behavior you'd expect from the main characters. Some spoilers follow below, so make sure you've caught up to Episode 3 before scrolling any further.
