I'm not removing CIS, I'm simply stating the options on the table. The analogy is sound, whether or not you agree, and your flippant approach is a waste of time with me as you should know.
Thanos has mindraped opponents on panel (Fallen One, for one example), so it's not as far fetched as you're attempting to make it appear, and it's not a plot device ability a la T-vo either, Thanos is a noted telepath. The fact he doesn't do it in every appearance does not remove the option from his arsenal.

Yes.
Batdude is attempting to form an argument that since an action isn't done on a regular basis it wouldn't be done in a hypothetical confrontation scenario taking a combatant's characterization/personality/modus operandi into account.
I'm stating that circumstances dictate actions.
I care less whether you find it comical.
The logic is sound.

Anyway, I'm more so laughing at the choice of example.

No, he's taking the blast on his own durability. His shields extend further out when they are up.
He tanks another blast against Odin, too. And then walks through a Gungir-amped blast. Pretty clear that no shields were being used, because he ends up grabbing the staff (how would one do that through shielding?)

That blast is definitely not hitting him. Look at his head for an example... Look at his right hand too.
How could he grab the Gungir? Maybe Odin's blasts destroyed his shield, maybe he turned it off in order to grab Gungir.

That's as lulworthy as when that troll-sock Kornillius said that Spider-Man could beat Thor by webbing him.
😂
Mordru wins and easily.
