Yes, Thanos is consistent and if you suspend your disbelief and take his basic plan as logical, everything that follows makes sense. Consistently stupid, but that was the fig leaf that made Infinity War 2 billion dollars or whatever.

I could see there is some kind of pathway where A (muh kids) might lead to B (whatever happened there) for Scarlet Witch, but in addition to the weird idea that she might be sort of justified, the escalation was way too fast. This is a character that ostensibly had a sound mind as of Endgame. What MCU writers think of as a "motivation" is actually an excuse to smash action figures together.

Well that's likely because all their shows with the replacement heroes starting bombing left and right, so they needed to start putting their not-dead and still liked characters in quickly and fast.

Her descent could have worked, heck it could have worked that fast even after Infinity War. But Endgame is in the middle there messing up the timeline of "grief."

Nobody alleged Thanos was inconsistent lol. He thinks he has the solution, but why? Has he considered and rejected more reasonable options? No, because there are just flat out better options and that would make the movie look bad.

What the Salari did to the Krogan in Mass Effect makes sense. You have a race of warrior frogs running out of control across the galaxy because they hatch hundreds of eggs to a clutch, so you infect them with a virus that makes 999/1000 eggs nonviable. It's a dire measure but it actually stops the exponential curve that causes overpopulation.

Bro this is supposedly a genius character that can't see choices a college freshman would see. It's not a believable blindspot.
