Unless I'm wrong, I think the universe Past Thanos jumped out of is safe, since he was the one strong enough to track all the stones down and kill the universe. It still has all the stones scattered about without Thanos tracking them down.
The universe Past Thanos jumped
into, of course, is the one we're following, and it is now stoneless. Present Thanos destroyed the Present stones, and the Past stones were returned to the other universes.

Right -- you can't figure out time travel, which is why it doesn't exist. But movies can set rules for time travel and then
try to stick to those rules.
I felt this movie did a pretty good job of that.

What I tell myself: it's possible that bringing Tony back would undo the snap, since it was the snap that killed him.
Don't think you want to undo the snap.
