Plus, Doctor Strange saw over 14 million outcomes. His gamble was that the one scenario he did witness a win would happen but the odds were that Thanos would win anyway.

And I forgot about Doctor Stranger who despite supposedly being "The best of them" according the Ancient One, seems to not know any of the important things he’s supposed to know (I guess Wong is the best of them), and is just along for the ride in his own movie. He doesn’t really defeat anyone but himself. Even Wanda as the big bad is essentially defeated by herself!

I can site a bunch of examples of how they are doing some of the old male Avengers and new male heroes dirty too if we’re going to nit pick.
Loki: TVA treats him as a joke, the female Loki is considered the threat and Hiddleston Loki is constantly lavishing Sylvie with praise. She ultimate kills "Kang". Hiddleston Loki essentially plays second banana to Sylvie in his own series (despite being Avengers 1 major threat and multiple movie secondary threat)
Hawkeye: Second banana to Kate Bishop. Didn’t even defeat the King Pin (Kate did).
Moon Knight: We barely see any Moon Knight and Layla saves Moon Knight/Marc/Stephen a half a dozen times. She also gets the big hero moment in saving the civilians despite this series being called Moon Knight
Shang Chi: Yes, Shang defeated is dad for the rings and ultimately defeated the monster, but he’s also made to look like a chump by getting his ass whopped by his sister who is so amazing that she learned everything he learned (and potentially better by her words) just by watching. She in fact takes over the organization and becomes one of the most powerful forces in the world despite the intent of the Mandarin to pass it to Shang.
Nevermind that Ant Man is always made to look like a buffoon next to the Wasp, Thor (one of the most powerful Avengers) has been turned into a comedy character, etc. etc.
Not trying to turn this into a male vs female battle, but you can just about find examples over the the ridiculous number of Marvel TV/Movie hours to make a case for almost anything at this point
