Yes, in the beginning, the story made it seem like they were doing a great job then Marvel pulled a bait and switch. They had a show of power but it's nothing that had any lasting effect or that anyone remembers. Governments still have their nukes and weapons. There is still war and famine in the world. Again you're just posting stuff from the beginning of the event. If you read the whole event they get corrupted and power-hungry. They even start fighting amongst themselves.
Phoenix Namor floods and kills thousands in Africa. Colossus and Magik beating Spider-Man half to death. Cyclops killing Charles Xavier. Infighting amongst themselves. The X-men and the mutants joining the Avengers and other heroes to fight against the Phoenix Five. etc. etc. etc.
here are some synopses from Marvel:
but it didn't lastThe Phoenix Five built a grand new Utopia, a floating fortress, for mutant-kind. They began working to provide power, food, and water for all the Earth. Not content with just that, they outlawed war altogether.
Scott realized they needed to hunt down the Avengers, imprisoning some of their members, while the rest were outlaws. After Namor tries to finish them against Cyclops' will, he's defeated by the combined forces of all the Avengers present in Wakanda, their hideout. After Namor fell, his portion of the Phoenix Force was bequeathed to the rest of the Phoenix Five. The Avengers escaped to an unknown location for the X-Men, and Charles Xavier telepathically alerts Scott to stop his actions or he will be stopped.As the number of Avengers were shrinking day after day, the Phoenix Four's lust for power and tyranny only grew. Professor Charles Xavier attempted to rescue the Avengers that were trapped in Magik's Limbo Prison ...Emma starts to cave into her dark side, killing a man who once committed a "hit-and-run" against a mutant and later acting more tyrannical to the point of threatening anyone who's not worshiping her.Aaron created the 10,000 BC Avengers showing that Earth's first superhero defenders were Odin, Phoenix, BP ancestor, Ironfist, Agomotto, Ghost Rider, and Star Brand (might be forgetting someone). Creating another shared link between these characters or mantles or franchises which he's referenced in a few story arcs. I don't remember all the details offhand so you should check out the run if you're curious.Cyclops cannot find himself to take the Phoenix from Emma, despite the fact that she taunts him. She tries to tempt him to burn the entire world and start again from nothing, but Cyclops refuses her. Their conversation is interrupted when they are attacked by the combined might of the Avengers and the X-Men. Professor X uses his telepathy to try and shut them down long enough for the Avengers and X-Men to take them down. Cyclops finally gives in and takes Emma's portion of the Phoenix, becoming the sole wielder of the Phoenix Force. After Xavier tries to shut him down again, Scott kills him and completely loses control of himself, becoming Dark Phoenix.[
As far progressing Mutants, has the Phoenix ever done that? Didn't the Mutants form their nation and pull back from the rest of the world on their island? If you feel that's what's best for mutant-kind why do they need some mythical savior or destroyer like the Phoenix to do anything? Should have tons of Omega-level mutants on the island.
Lastly, this story has nothing to do with vilifying the X-men or anything to do with the X-men. Wolverine is the only X-men involved in the story. (Do people still consider Namor and X-man?). I suggest checking it out if you're curious. This is not AvX or even related to the X-men besides Jean's warning echo about the Phoenix near the end.
