in all of this it is worth remembering that minor inconsistencies are largely excused away in the MCU.
even major ones are ignored or assumed to have an answer at a later date.
there is significant cognitive flexibility in the audience here.
we will never know for sure whether their current path is the max $$$ path.
that doesn't have to be viewed as an "intro". there are a million ways to cover for that. for example okoye could be telling the avengers that to keep it an internal wakandan matter. there is plenty of room to fit what were only a few sentences into another narrative. they showed atlantis in avengers II didn't they. was that an "intro" too? as long as the argument is plausible the audience will accept it as dogma.
it postpones. it does not eliminate.
lots of MCU projects get postponed. people get cut from their movies all the time. w'kabi is not appearing at all, to little effect, because he, despite his acting talent, was not a great characterr.
as I said there isn't much by way of a great supporting cast. there is a wakanda TV series so they could have roles and income there. the ones that are still around could appear in BP III.
sorry but I cannot see an issue here. other than monetary maybe.
kasumba appeared in falcon.
black widow guest starred for 10+ years and was still a fan favourite.
if the MCU became concerned about a great character's actor leaving due to this postponement they could write them in elsewhere.
those characters are all weak and underdeveloped. that is why they are scrabbling around to find someone to even substitute for BP. that is down to who the MCU cast in those roles and how they were written but that is another story. the only possible exception is nakia but as I said above we have the wakandan TV series and guest appearances elsewhere to cover that. with little to no work nakia (and shuri for that matter) could appear in armor wars, wakanda TV show, what IF, ironheart TV show over the next few years. not bad for characters who have had next to zero lines and a few mins in almost 4+ years of the MCU.
MCU movies set in the past can still make money. it just depends on how it is done. widow didn't. cap I did fine and is a good movie. captain marvel was OK and made a billion. all three films started in the past and ended in the present. BP II could have done the same.
BP III would probably come after kang messes everything up and that is a ready made reason for t'challa to change. as things stand I am sure that kang is going to change a lot anyway. timelines will be merged. histories will change.

all of wakanda is not getting flooded. mbaku's people will be safe in the mountains for example. who knows what wakanda was like before or how big it was. writing consequences in is easy. you have that post credits person ... klaw is involved which led to BP I and the death of n'jobu. you could add in kang. it could explain why t'chaka retired from BP. it could include more war dog stuff - n'jobu moving to america. and like they are doing now there will be consequences on the namor side. atuma is probably not going to make it out of the movie.
that flooding could explain wakanda's layout including the great falls. as we see humans are involved in the attack, it could explain why wakanda became even more isolationist. it could drive the adoption of the camouflage and shield defences. it could lead to the creation of the dora.
wakandan tech could have sunk atlantis in BPII leaving the sinking of wakanda for BPIII. maybe them mining too much vibranium did it. maybe by accident.

Bruh. Lesbian Dora Milaje, Shuri being Black Panther and the Wakanda/Atlantis war are straight out of the comic books. Everything the MCU is doing with BP right now is mostly comic book accurate.
So you are okay with postponing characters for later movies.
