Where Stormbreaker is concerned: in the comics, an IG-user has to adapt/acclimate to their newfound omnipotence -- it takes a while for them to stop thinking like a mortal, and start thinking like God. They don't just gain a complete IG and instantly know how to use it to its full capacity. That might be why Thanos didn't/couldn't stop Stormbreaker..?
Not healing himself doesn't make sense, unless the stones simply aren't allowing Thanos to heal himself because he used them in such a grotesque manner..?
As for not repairing the gauntlet: it's important to remember that Thanos had dedicated most of his life beforehand to halving the universe's populace by culling planets individually. The stones simply presented a faster, more efficient way of fulfilling this goal. As far as Thanos is concerned, the IG is essentially just a really big gun -- and now that his goal has been fulfilled and half of all life in the universe has been erased, perhaps Thanos simply doesn't want the gauntlet anymore, so why fix it..? Perhaps the only reason he wants to keep the stones now is just to prevent someone else from using them to undo what he has done..?
As for Gamora: if Thanos resurrected her, maybe the soul stone would abandon him for undoing the 'tribute' he had to pay in order to acquire it in the first place..?
Just spitballing here. No clue if any of this will hold any validity when all is said and done. /shrug

It doesn't go well with a nice tailored pin stripe suit.
It's dangerous for left handed onanism practicioners.
The stones keep ripping the paper when you're writing.
Completely impractical, really.

Not stopping Stormbreaker was just a one-off/plot-device, imo. Even if he was freshly into godhood, stopping a thrown axe woudn't be beyond what he's already shown with fewer stones.
As far as Thanos' left side being injured, I think it's maybe the price he has to pay in using the stones on a universal scale as he did. He was able to heal the nigh-fatal wound Thor gave him, but not his gimpy left arm? Similar goes with resurrecting Gamora, the price you pay if you want to play.
Also think it's possible he could have temporarily de-powered the stones by using them in such a large scope and this will play into his downfall.
Yeah, the axe wound actually closes up as he teleports away. I didn't even notice originally, because it happens so quickly. But thankfully there are people on the internet with a lot of time on their hands. Even if you know what to look for, you have to watch him teleporting away at like 0.25 normal speed to really notice it properly.
I suspect that because the arm was injured by the Infinity Stones, it's probably the cost of doing what he did.
Edit: Oh, and apparently the Russos revealed that Thanos could potentially (note, not definitively) use the stones to heal himself fully. Seems the injury itself might be backlash he did to himself, based on some of their "pain and guilt" comments:
Seems odd that Thanos would choose to punish himself with physical/external injuries on top of the mental/internal anguish he was clearly experiencing after the deed was done.

I can't wait for Hawkeye to get his big dramatic moment where he has his Thanos Killed His wife and Children and then they will make a big joke about it when he gets joke pwned. Cause phuck that guy!
Lol!

Actually kind of makes sense to me. Maybe the mental anguish/guilt drove him to try and punish himself in a desperate attempt to somewhat atone. Might also have been the gauntlet reacting directly to his subconscious, so he had no conscious choice in the matter.
