Originally posted by Erik-Lensherr It is stated that Mistress Death exists in a plane outside this reality, so if Thanos didn't knew that she still existed, it means that his Omniscience and Omnipresence isn't all encompassing.
Or it could be that sub-consciously he allowed Death to survive,
because of his eternal love for her.
Warlock stated the reason for Thanos letting him live,
was for someone to "witness" Thanos' "grand gesture"
that "grand gesture" is ... re-creating/healing the ENTIRE Marvel Universe.
====================================
If Thanos wanted, he could've absorbed Death too,
and Warlock.
Isn't it a coincidence though,
that Thanos only left (as far as anyone knows) Two realities behind, (or beings)
Death (his life-time infatuation) and ...
Atlea's realm which contained Warlock.
Warlock, I remember Thanos saying he saw no reason not to erase Warlock aswell,
You know what Warlock responded with:
"Except then no one would witness your grand gesture"
Thanos replies, "I was not aware that I had one planned"
Warlock responds, "The security of the Void is not your way Titan"

What do yall think that means?
Warlock knew Thanos would end up Re-Creating everything (his grand gesture)
because like he told Thanos:
"I understand you, better than, perhaps, you do yourself,
why I have trusted you so many times in the past"
"The security of the Void is not your way Titan"
Precisely, Thanos doesn't wanna rule over nothing, a Void. 🙂

IMO,
it's quite conceivable
that Thanos (subconsciously) allowed Death and Warlock to survive for said reasons.
Death for love ...
and Warlock for This .. to witness This:
