Tony Stark as a brilliant electronics engineer I have no issue with. Tony Stark deciding he's also a brilliant social engineer I have more qualms about.

True enough. In individual instances, "arrogant genius overreaches area of expertise" makes a perfectly reasonable and often very in-character plot. It's when it's all the intellectual characters in multiple events regardless of usual behaviour and values that it becomes a pretty wearing pattern.

TBH it was less Tony and more Reed imo. Tony just went along with Richards BS

The inspiration of it all though was Tony the Futurist having a vision of the "inevitable" war between superbeings (whilst on a time travel jaunt to Camelot) and then doing bugger all to prevent it for the years between then and the Stamford Incident.
