DOOM's the only guy with a proper Time Machine, and AUs don't really have any impact on the main-U.

No, you're retarded. If people like that don't exist, how do they ever invent shit like time machines in the first place, retard?

So when he uses super math or whatever to predict the future and does morally questionable things to prevent it, it's OK. But when an Inhuman kid who has actual superpowers that let him very accurately predict the future does it and other people do slightly less morally questionable things to prevent it, suddenly it's a horrible thing worth fighting your friends over.

Reed uses Super-Math. Tony just follows his gut, or some times builds an AI. Future-Predicting-Math is out of his ballpark.

You don't invent a time machine because "people will want to buy that product in the future but they don't know it yet, I'm anticipating the needs of the market"

Not unless you WANT the world to not only end but to have retroactively never existed.

But you can analyze the events happening in there to get a better understanding of what could possibly happen in your own reality

>That's why we're such succesful inventors. We know what people will need before people even know they're gonna need it
The problem is that we've never actually seen Reed or Tony do this. Whenever they invent something, it was always something they needed right at that moment or Reed just sciensing for the sake of science, it was never "my future math tells me that people are going to need X in the future, better do that". Most of Reed and Tony's inventions aren't available to anyone else anyway.

Nah, Tony's done that a few times. Fraction'srun was all about him coming up with new ways to make clean energy sustainable. He was in the process of creating a Dyson Sphere during the Hickman NA run. He's created stuff like Clean Nukes in the past, and banal things like cheap but advanced phones for the lower class.

Tony actually gets shit done once in a while, it's Reed who's a completely useless fuck.

But that's not "knowing what people will need before people even know they're gonna need it", those were things that people already needed and already knew they needed.

Eh, it's a quote from a Bendis book, you really expect any deep insight? It's a cool line, it makes him come off as forward thinking, and that's it.

The reason why 'tech genius' supers don't work is because the people that write them usually don't work closely enough with tech to back it up, and those that do tend to be obsessed with proving their nerd cred and preaching their particular brand of politics.
