The idea that the Marvel Universe could possibly be any kind of exact match for the real world that just happens to have all these superheroes and magic and shit in it is silly of course But it's central to the conceit

This is the whole reason Marvel pointedly set all its original stories in the real New York City, with recognizable street names and landmarks, instead of making up a fictional equivalent the way DC Comics generally did (Metropolis, Gotham City, etc)

In a general sense, I agree with you, but I don't think bucky did 9/11, since it would put a damper on people writing fanfic shipping him with steve or falcon or whoever since it's more grounded and not fun or glamorous like him murdering tony's parents, which didn't happen irl.
