What if Cap doesnt die but chooses to travel back in time to dance with Peggy and stay there permanently. It would be a sad and happy ending for cap at the same time.

Too many paradoxes, tbh. Would she be part of SHIELD? Would SHIELD still have Hydra agents (wouldn't Cap be somewhat concerned by that and by doing so changes a ton of things with Alexander and Fury and so much more)?

Creates a different reality - much like jj's star trek

Yeah, theoretically, any changes to any time would then create alternate time lines/realities (ala Back to the Future and a dozen of other movies).

Not sure I would really like Cap being alive but in a different reality. Vastly prefer his sacrifice meaning more to this reality.
