Tran spoke about the reason for making the scene and how they got to the idea initially.

Yes, Brie Larson had a part in adding the team-up scene into the original script of the third act.

Tinh Tran Concerns On The All-Women Team Up Scene
Though this scene may look cool with all the female superheroes fighting Thanos and his army, many fans didn’t actually like it.
Tran recalls his thought process while filming this scene as he always thought of a reason for it in the film.
Tran said, “In the earlier cuts when we started screen testing it. There was a little concern for ‘Does it come off as pandering?’ Are we going to get people saying, Oh, You’re just putting that scene in there just to put the scene? Does it actually have a story to tell with the rest of the narrative? That was always a concern in the back of our heads.”
Marvel was determined to keep the “Girl Power” moment in the film going and had to take up the scene. For that reason alone, Marvel did a whole bunch of reshoots to make this scene less pandering.
At first, They showed each individual female superhero and then the group up which in their perspective seemed to be organic and natural.

Why That Scene Was A Huge Mistake
No matter what Marvel did, The all-women team-up scene in Avengers: Endgame is miserable.
Even though they had it planned out for the big group shot, The scene just feels forced.
By considering the fan opinions, We can confirm Marvel’s attempts to make the women team-up scene less pandering failed in Avengers: Endgame.
Showcasing women empowerment is good but adding a scene in a crucial moment in the film with absolutely nothing to offer is just bad writing.
This scene in particular neither adds anything to the narrative nor delivers a smooth story to the audience.
Whatever the intentions may be behind the women team-up scene in Avengers: Endgame, The scene feels empty, and add to that there are no lines for their interaction when they meet for the first time.
