[SPOILER - highlight to read]: On a second viewing, I still stand with The Russo's way of interpreting how the gems and Gauntlet worked is that the gems have to be activated and then they glow when being used.
The gem had no glow in the Hulk fight. They did any time Thanos used them.
Also on Titan , Strange said, "Don't let him close his fist". Why would he say that? Every line of dialog in this movie had some meaning behind it. It meant that per the Russos vision in this movie, the gems in the Gauntlet had to be "activated" somehow when they are used.
There is more evidence to state that Thanos was not using the gem fighting Hulk then there is evidence trying to state that he was using the gem.

It's not only about having his fists closed it's about activating the gems somehow when he closes his hand and then they start to Glow. They don't activate just cause he closes his fist all the time. He had his hands close plenty of times without any of the gems being used or activated.
There was no purple Glow In The Hulk fight.

In contrast, [SPOILER - highlight to read]: the stone glowed while torturing Thor, right before, and when Thanos released the purple energy pulse that caused the ship to explode, right after.

Right. That is when he actually activated it. It didn't glow in the Hulk fight.
Also the gem didn't glow [SPOILER - highlight to read]: when Thanos choked Loki to death, And Loki has been one of the most durable characters in the MCU.

Dude, the fact that the fist is closed doesnt mean its being used! Thanos decides when to use it, yet it seems that it can only happen when its closed.
Aint like he has to have his fist open all the time he doesnt want to use the gauntlet.
I don't see it as if the fist is closed he will shoot at his feet. Aint like he has to make sure never to close the fist when he sleeps because he could reality warp his bed into a nail bed.
Or he has to make sure to never close his fist while shitting cause he might stop time and never finish his duties
The gauntlet clearly is more complex than that. Thanos seems to be able to willingly decide when to use the gauntlet for which he NEEDS to close his fist.
Not like the gauntlet automatically activates each time he closes his fist.
