@chaoselement: I am going to go backwards here. First off the throw is not a feat. He used her momentum to throw her away. She was literally suspended air born reaching for the gauntlet and Thanos threw her with all his strength. Next I have already countered the barn scene. And furthermore the Russos never explicitly stated CM was weaker than Hulk infact they have hyped her up as the most powerful avenger statement wise you are outmatched. Secondly Thanos was not taking continental levels of energy. In endgame he wasn't even in pain. Just putting the gauntlet on doesn't instantly kill you or even do that much damage at first. And furthermore Hulk actively tried to use the gauntlet. Thanos did not. Actively using the gauntlet is what causes that level of power Thanos was not actively using the gauntlet and as such was not experiencing the energy of the gauntlet at full force if at all. Secondly CM glowing more is not true lol. She looks the same as she always does when she fights. CM always glows when she fights she glew a lot more at the finale of her own movie. And she pulled back on the bullrush that she did to him. Thanos was explicitly overpowered by CM. It has been stated he needed the powerstone to win. She no sold his headbutt. She bruised his face. CM is physically more durable and stronger than Thanos.
I am willing to CAV Carol vs Thanos if you are interested.
Anyways, moving on Russos said that Thanos has genius level intellect, and using Hulk as a benchmark not Thor or Carol which is a good thing to confirm that Hulk > Carol/Thor in physicals and durability. There is no coincidence that Hulk is brought up for the Snap, Punches and in term of Physicals right?
She still needed some seconds to recover from the throw plus Thanos was using only one hand due to having the IG. I mean, why she would be glowing more? Was she absorbing energy? Guidebook confirms she can and everytime she absorbs, she glows more.
Full IG channels a continent level energy, Tony said that, it's confirmed. And only Thanos and then Hulk could survive it (and Thor if he was in his prime IW).
It's not a matter of a theory, it's a fact;
Tony Stark : ''No, it's not just the fact that that glove's channeling enough energy to light-up a continent. I'm telling you, you're in no condition.''
Someone as durable as EG Thor, couldn't survive that level of energy. When he was in his IW he survived the star beam.
Question: ''Why Iron Man has to be the one to do the final snap, couldn't the people like Thor, Star-Lord or Captain Marvel whom all previously have handled the power of Infinity Stones done it instead?''
Joe Russo: ''Thor in this movie couldn't do it, only Hulk was strong enough to do the snap without dying. We are still not sure whether Captain Marvel can also withstand all the power of Infinity Stones at once.''

Not even Carol could certainly do it, who can take a city level bombardment from Sanctuary II without getting any damage and she can travel through space, and they say even she may not survive the full continental radiation of the gauntlet.
It pretty much confirms Thanos = Hulk > Thor / Carol.
I do not see any damage during the farm scene but I can see that Carol was getting overpowered and pulled off by a weakened Thanos. If she was physically far stronger, why did that happen? I mean, I do not think that she was holding back with him.
