So it was easier to completely convolute Quicksilver and Sacrlet Witch’s history once again, which will merely need to be revamped again at some point, because if you’re concerned about aging that will always be a problem. Tying them to Magneto gave them a rich sense of history and drama in the Marvel Universe,a history that they no longer have. Storywise they are weaker characters by far now.
