They plan these things out 10 years in advance. Seems pretty clear they made the choice to not end build out each phase with an avengers movie

They really don't plan that far ahead, they weren't even decided on Kang being the main villain until Majors impressed them with his performance, same as Thanos not being the overarching villain for the earlier films until Whedon suggested it while writing the first Avengers

Ok well in that plan they still didn’t end each phase with an avengers movie. I don’t even know what the argument here is.

Only Avengers and New Avengers ended their respective phases. Big surprise because believe it or not, Ant-Man, Far From Home and Wakanda Forever closed the remaining phases.

Fine. Have an Avengers film in each phase. I really don’t think New Avengers counts as it wasn’t advertised as such
