It makes sense to me. Captain America got his powers by being given an experimental super serum and hit with Gamma Rays, Spider-Man got his by being bitten by a one of a kind radioactive spider, Iron Man built a suit, and so on, and so on.

But mutants? Anybody could end up being a mutant. The guy next to you could be a omega-level supermutant one day and destroy a city, for all you know. Alternately, your son or daughter could also one day turn out to be a mutant (this is where the woke writers have always loved X-Men... their favorite thing to do is parallel being a mutant with being gay, and "the cure" with gay conversion therapy and all that). And it's a gene.

On a government-level (Sentinels, high level G men, etc.)? The immediate push would be to identify and round up mutants, for classification and study (as in, "Are they evil and do they have mutant nuclear powers that will kill a million people one day?" -- they kind of need to make sure the answer is a "no") and/or therapy to ensure they're no danger to themselves or others. This isn't remotely the same thing as the people who get powers in completely random situations ala the Avengers... mutants are everywhere and half of them are probably going to end up being bad guys and this would horrify the government(s). The occasional Spider-Man or even Captain Marvel popping up once every couple of decades is one thing... this is quite another.

I'm really, really hoping that's not what they do. Just popping open the door to some other dimension and the X-Men jumping through it into the main MCU universe... that's ridiculously dumb. Alternately, exploring another dimension and meeting the X-Men there and just leaving that dimension as the dimension that future movies will explore as its own separate thing... also dumb.

X-Men Movie #1, just begin with Professor X making a speech that after the Thanos debacle, mutants can no longer afford to hide in the shadows as they have for decades... that they are among you and are (mostly) your friends. Maybe cut to Nick Fury stepping to a mic, chiming in, "Yeah... they've been out there. Today, I'm de-classifying the X-Men." And we just go from there. Simple. Future MCU movies could even have flashbacks to when MCU characters encountered mutants but didn't make a big deal about it. Like Storm in Black Panther 2, etc..

Although sh**... maybe I've just figured out what they're going to do. Maybe they're going to indeed reveal a second Earth as an Earth that doesn't have the Avengers, but instead has the X-Men and the Fantastic Four. We'll get a couple of movies out of each, and then there will be the big X-Men vs. Avengers movie... and they'll merge the two worlds together and that will be the explanation.
