11. Gamora Makes A Huge Mistake

So, you can partly forgive Doctor Strange for not giving up the Time Stone and destroying it, because that's one of his reasons for actually existing - to protect the artifact - but Gamora's silliness in not protecting what she knows about the Soul Stone makes her look very silly.

In order for Thanos to never find out about the Soul Stone, all Gamora has to do is not go to Knowhere, where Thanos has baited a trap for her. She knows that he needs her to find the missing stone, so her primary concern should be literally never bumping into him ever again. But no, instead she basically just Leeroy Jenkins it into the vipers' nest and is inevitably captured and forced to reveal her secret.

Sure, Nebula might then die, but she'd never know and it's better than half of existence being wiped out. Considering she was willing to make Star-Lord kill her to protect the secret, you'd have thought she might just entertain the idea of NOT walking straight into Thanos' grateful arms?
