A black hole that can instantly suck in everything within a radius of 2 light years is not a miniature black hole. It's a super massive black hole, with a mass/weight of god knows how many suns, to be able to have that type of reach (and instantly too). But I'm not surprised a comic writer would make that mistake, it's not like learning astronomy is a pre-requisite to write comics. Although, it probably would help if you're writing sci-fi or cosmic stuff.
Also, I don't see any narration or art depiction that would suggest Thanos teleported away just before the black hole sucked everything in.

It also states everything within a 2 light year radius was sucked in instantly, this is big enough to engulf countless solar systems. If Starlin wants to call it a "miniature" black hole it's fine by me. But, labeling it as such doesn't diminish it's destructive power shown on panel.
That's like saying if an explosion destroys a planet, and the author labels it a small explosion, it some how makes it less impressive. Like you said, "that's not how it works".

Ok, follow up research.
Currently the largest black hole known has an event horizon "about five times the distance between our sun and Pluto."
Distance from Sun to Pluto = 0.000624133538 light years
5x distance from Sun to Pluto = 0.00312066769 light years
A black hole with an event horizon of 4 light years is still about 1,282 times larger than the largest black hole ever recorded, if I've done my math correctly./

Apparently this is suppose to be a "miniature" black hole, yet it's 1,282 times larger than the largest black hole recorded so far. I don't think Starlin knows how big 2 light years is.
If the diameter of the solar system is 0.001248 light years (assuming the radius of the solar system is from the sun to Pluto), and the black hole Thanos tanked was 4 light years in diameter, it would mean it was big enough to swallow 3,205 solar systems. This makes Superman tanking the equivalent of 50 supernovas look pretty miniscule doesn't it abhiligend? 😉
This is why I originally refrained from using calculations, because it starts to get ridiculous when applied to comics. I'll just use to qualitative approach, and say the black hole is really, really big and powerful.

Sounds like the author is an idiot either way...
It was stated on panel to be 2 light years in radius, and the author labeling it as miniature won't change that fact. He could call the black hole anything he wants, it still wouldn't change the fact that it swallowed everything within 2 light years radius.

Unless Starlin is like my friend who said "Dude, did you see Jeremy? He ate like a MILLION chicken nuggets last night!!"
That's how I feel about Starlin's writing of Thanos, hahaha! Thanos is my friend's friend Jeremy.
