Well it seems like I gave you too much credit for your other post.. Thanos is JUST fine against blunt force trauma.. In fact, one could argue better than against energy. How could they argue that, well Thanos has only been KO'd via energy attacks and never via blunt force trauma. Lets take a look at the showings of Thanos that put him considerably above above what Thor can pack...Well first, a more powerful than normal Thor who was amped by the PG couldn't put Thanos down with multiple shots from his hammer. If regular Thor, can't put Thanos down and even an amped Thor can't put Thanos down with Strikes.. were is this notion that all it takes is Herald Class power to put him down comng from?
Well it is debatable how strong PG Thor was over his regular NON HOLDING BACK SELF. Surely PG was most likely stronger than regular holding back Thor. But a non holding back Thor? Thor's showings vary and partly this is because he holds back (like when he fights Hulk and such). But when Thor doesn't hold back he performs feats like such as shown against the Celestials.
I disagree with the reasoning: Since Thor beat x, y, and z then he was at least A more times as powerful than before.
This is because the said reasoning doesn't take in account of HOW THOR BEAT X, Y, and Z. Thor has always been powerful enough to ko every member on the Watch, provided if he is able to hit them repeatly. His strength levels WASN'T SHOWN TO BE MUCH HIGHER THAN NORMAL. Only his average durability was shown to be higher (but not higher than Thor's best feats of durability).
Lastly, Thanos not being koed doesn't mean he can't be koed. It stands to reason that if a character can be harmed, stunned, or injured in any way from an attack then they certainly can be koed if more of those similar attacks are added or an even more powerful attack connects.
Thanos taking shot after shot from his doppleganger, is again, well above herald level power. The dopple was more powerful than Thanos, which would then mean, he's well above the herald class you feel can put him down.
He also took two shots from Magus with the IG and wasn't put down. That is a lot more power than anything thor or any herald could produce and that didn't put him down. The above reasoning takes care of your doppleganger argument. Also Thanos is not well above Herald level. If he is above then he's not above by a large amount (well above is pushing it). Thor will give Thanos a long good fight and IF SURFER USES HIS BEST ABILITIES will also give Thanos a long good fight.
Thanos was definitely affected by Magus. If I'm not mistaken a simple pimpsmack rocked the hell outta Thanos. Also, Magus didn't wan't to kill Thanos as he told Thanos to admit something (can't remember what). Lastly, Magus couldn't harness the power of the IG as well as say a Thanos can. If Thor, Superman, WW, etc. was in the place of Thanos then they too wouldn't have been koed by those few strikes of Magus. But they would have been harmed.
Also you are forgetting the times Thor has rocked Thanos, proving that Thanos can be harmed by High Herald level blunt force attacks.
We won't even get into him not even having a scratch on him, let alone put down from a supernova explosion he took point blank. Thor has never even one shot a planet on panel, so no, we can't say Thor can hit harder or with enough force to cause a supernova type effect. A supernova is PART energy attack and not all blunt force concentrated in a small area (like a fist or hammer).
Several other High Heralds have taken supernova type (or greater) type attacks, yet they can harm each other. So something has to give. Either most heralds can't harm other heralds or heralds resisting supernova type attacks can't be used.
Also withstanding the core of a star or the inside of a massive black hole takes far greater durability than withstanding a supernova from outside of a star.
He's taken multiple shots from the Hulk, Drax, Herc, and most bricks you can never without ever being KO'd.
In conclusion, this notion that all it takes is herald level power to put down Thanos and he's some how weak to blunt force trauma.. is well.. laugable and just not true. My logic above takes care of this. To reiterate. All high herald level physical blunt attacks have been shown to harm Thanos. Adding more of these or connecting with a much more powerful attack would ko Thanos.

Give me some examples. Im sorry if I don't know what you are referring to.
