3 screams is still 3 screams. maybe the last 2 were somewhat lessened, still impressive as all hell. what attack, individual or collectively, compares with even one of bb's screams?
There's no maybe. It was flat out said that activating the Bomb reduced Black Bolt's power levels to less then half of what they were. That is why the later screams were so pathetic in comparison to the first and were actively getting weaker. And the bomb was activated by the first scream and it actively converted sound into light power so even the power of the first one is questionable.

you're right about the builder. forgot it was an aleph he one-shotted. 👆 in any event, hulk was treated like a child imo, disdainfully. he got back up but it was clear he was considered little more than a pest imo. smiling? yeah, we'll disagree there. proxima ended him very quickly. if she could, pretty sure thanos could have done the same.
Iyo maybe, but this is completely subjective and the bottom line is, that Thanos punch did nothing but knock Hulk off of his feet. As a matter of fact, he smiled. There's better evidence suggesting Groot is above Thanos physically
What's there to disagree? Do you not know what a smile is?
Proxima trapped him under the weight of a Star and reverted him to Banner. If Thanos can do that, sure he could defeat him similarly, but I don't think he can.

ot sure where in the scan i showed that you can possibly say thor was resisting.....anything. he was even without his hammer.... he was literally cast aside like a leaf.
It looked like Thor was trying to hold his ground but this is subjective so agree to disagree.

nor am i sure what needs to be acknowledged honestly. thanos utterly tanked 2 full on lightning blasts (who else has EVER done that?), took a charged smash to the head, then proceeded to palm thor's hammer and was about to kill him and the rest of the avengers. long battles? meh, that can be said too often to really matter. thanos himself had just taken bb's screams so....yeah. imo it was clear that thanos was intended to be WELL beyond all of the avengers, tired or not. i asked this before, but for people who think the worthy win (some who think the worthy can SOLO, or that it might only take 2 or 3) where has a herald or group of heralds been shown to be even remotely threatening to thanos? that doesn't mean he can take 1000 heralds. but 7-8? i think it is certainly a debatable point at the least.
I can think of some characters who have tanked lightning blasts from Thor. They like all things fluctuate.
It is worth noting however as one point was the Avengers being pushed to the brink and just not being able to cope with everything happening all at once. I'm not saying one particular battle weakened them or something (At least I don't think so). I'm saying that the culmination of their activities should be noted.
You really can't think of any instance when a Herald or a group of Heralds was problematic for Thanos?

tbh, i'd say thor himself was more powerful than ANY of the worthy, aside from juggs and MAYBE nul. if thanos can treat thor like that, i've little doubt he could kill most of the worthy before the accumulation of damage via attrition takes him down. i'd go as far as to say thor could kill any 2 of them aside from hulk or juggs at the same time. attuma had a decent showing but that had the air of defender jobbing.... thanos would kill a couple at LEAST as quick as thor could. each time one fell, the odds of them winning would drop. kurrth would be last, nul would prolong things, but i don't see either one being able to put him down. i know you'll disagree, but as i said, looking at his history, i just think it's clear he's well above this tier. you don't have to be a skyfather to beat a group of heralds.
He had a nice durability showing with the lightning but even that isn't anything above his older showings. I have no idea what about his strength or his output in that comic makes you think he could easily kill the Worthy or something when Hulk and Thor were unhurt by his punches more or less.
How is Thanos going to go about easily killing the Worthy? What about Infinity in anyway suggests that he can go about easily killing Heralds when that's exactly what he DIDN'T do? I don't even understand how this reasoning makes sense. Not to mention the Worthy have ridiculous healing factors.
And how the hell is Thor going to kill a couple of the Worthy members either? He'd get instantly wrecked by this team. You seem to be taking an extreme outlier (vs. Angrir/Nul) and applying it at as the norm or something and then taking it to a whole new degree with him facing this team. Worse, you seem to be applying Thor's high end showing retroactively to Thanos as a norm which doesn't make sense because Thor, specifically Mjolnir, can accomplish things in a certain way that Thanos cannot.
