Abandoning the world in the off chance that Krypton might have survied, which had a big if, is something Superman wouldnt do.
Now the middle east was not destroyed and neither was africa so its safe to say Malcom x and Alex Haley´s pilgramages werent highly potencially pointless, nor would they take them 5 years.
Lets be honest here, the ONLY reason Superman left in SR, was as a Plot device/excuse to call the movie Superman Returns cause the franchise was gone for over 20 years (not counting SIII and SIV), there was no philosophy nor message in it, there was no profound analisis in the movie about him leaving, he just did so the movie title could have both a story and a meta sense to it.
I like you´r analisis but I think Id have to skip it in this instance basically cause I do not atribute half the depth you used, to Brian Singer, he rehashed plotpoint to plotpoint Superman one, I sincerily doubt he thought of Malcom X or some historical pilgramage back to the origin land, he was looking for an excuse to name the movie Superman Returns and so he made him go away, btw after being involved in a relationship with Lois Lane (at the very least a sexual one) and didnt even bother to say goodbye, that my friend is something Superman would never do
