Tony Stark kills like 50 people in the first Iron Man alone, and is shown to be suffering from PTSD in the 3rd one. There a reason his alcoholism is so off limits?

Favreau stated that the part of Tony drunk at the party in IM 2 was as far as he ever planned on going with Demon in the Bottle in his films.

But that’s the last we see of it, which for all intents and purposes makes it a lapse by a dying man rather than a part of the character. Favreau hasn’t been a big creative force for awhile, and a real acting challenge might be an incentive for RDJ to keep a role he seems sick of.

I know alcoholic Tony Stark isn't a Disney vision, but Iron Man in The Lost Weekend would he epic, especially a scene with Tony trying to pawn his original suit.

Be visibly and unambiguously queer? I mean, after a decade we've got the implication of Valkyrie's bisexuality, with a more concrete scene in Ragnarok being cut during production. And this is reportedly mainly because Tessa Thompson repeatedly pressed for it. We know that Marvel's contracts include that characters like Spider-Man are specifically barred from being presented as anything other than straight (Specified in the same section as him not being presented as a drug dealer or paedophile, which is just... Y'know. Great stuff. Thanks Stan.) The MCU needs its own Sara Lance.
