Yeah, I remember reading about refugees trying to go back to their homes in Germany and Poland post-WWII, and the government was definitely not throwing out the people who had moved in during the meantime and welcoming them back. At all.
Half the universe coming back AT ONCE, probably right at the point when everything had maybe started to stabilize? (Thinking about crops and medicines and manufacturing and whatever....) I think you're right the result would have been ugly civil war. They danced around it with the refugee camps, sort of, except the place Karli and her people wound up squatting in looked like a palace? idefk. But like with all the Snap/Blip stuff, the implications are pure horror if you think about it for longer than five minutes, but it's now baked in to the future of that verse! Fuck that.
