As for the M-body debate, I'm still deliberating on it.
I've research the matter thoroughly,
there is no account on panel or in a bio that states M-bodys come in variable levels of power.

Yes, there is only 'one' LT, but he can be all places and nowhere at once. If he can only have one M-Body physical representation at a time, and that one M-Body is his totality, it doesn't add up due to the premise of the character.
LT only has one M-body, that is everywhere at once.
That's how I've come to understand it (through issues and bios)
Apparently, this One M-body which has all of LT's power, can manifest simultaneously across the Infinite Realities with said level of power in every Reality.
Basically endless copies of the same being with the same power.
Now,
this doesn't mean that LT can merge separate manifestations of himself to grow in power, (never seen that or heard of that)
it's more of a mechanical configuration that seems to be devoid of perfect logic.

Hypothetically, if the LT were physically present in universes 616, 2348, 809, and 2117 (hypothetical universes save 616) simultaneously carrying out his duties, how could his totality be encompassed in only one M-Body when he's present on multiple planes of reality?Logic would dictate that he couldn't.
Exactly my point,
you're making perfect sense, but that's only if we look at the LT as a finite source of Energy.
That's just part of the Tribunal's character,
Omnipresence, with Full power in every presence.
Also, LT doesn't get defeated, we should take into consideration that the End, was a special occasion,
Thanos did have the power of "the Almighty" (TOAA) so that lost is completely acceptable.

And also, using your argument, if LT is present in all Marvel Multiverses (the blue and purple orbs from the Atleza account you addressed), and Thanos usurped the orb/actuality/universe he was present in, doesn't that mean that outside the sphere occupied by Thanos the LT would no longer be present as well?I don't think so, personally.
I don't see why not.
LT's duties are only present if they are needed, if there is no Mystical imbalance taking place, LT is pretty much incognito.
Then again, perhaps it doesn't matter if Thanos absorbed the FP LT of that specific Actuality,
because there's another (the same) for every other Multiverse.
Or we can also take into account the fact that the End of the Universe/Multiverse (opinions differ) was short lived,
and so LT wasn't missed,
after all, it was all TOAA's plan anyway.

Gamora, Warlock, Atleza and Death were outside the effects of the HOTI, so, IMO, the LT wasn't absorbed in his totality in as much as Thanos being granted the ability to usurp LT's role in that particular actuality with the power given to him by TOAA. Within that sphere LT no longer had domain by TOAA's designs, but outside that particular sphere his role would still be necessary.That is, of course, unless one were to assume that the HOTI had domain over all things Marvel, which would seem to be implausible given the survival of Warlock and the others.
Well Warlock & company survived because Thanos had only absorbed Space and Time:
And as you know Warlock & Co. were Outside the influence of Time & Space.
Completely disconnected from it in Atleza's Realm and Death in her's.
And again, I do believe that there was still LT's everywhere, which are all the same Entity, which all have the same power level, a power level that makes them/him second to TOAA (IMO)
(Trying to imagine omnipresence jirrates the senses)
