If Thanos had, instead of randomly wiping out 50% of all living things, he had instead in each species wiped out only the dumbest 50% what would the reaction of each avenger have been?

Would they have all still fought against him?

I always wondered if your goal is to reduce population. Why not just make half the people infertile?
Has to be more than that. People have multiple children and probably would. It’d need to be cut to at least one third or less.
Non-zero chance that the distribution of infertility does not match the distributions of male to female. Could result in complete population collapse pretty quickly.
