However, there was a glaring plot hole in Infinity War, and it all has to do with the Infinity Gauntlet.
Namely, if Thanos had Eitri make him the gauntlet to harness the power of the Infinity Stones, then how and why did Odin have a fake gauntlet in his vault years prior in the first Thor movie.

In the mid-credits scene for Avengers: Age of Ultron the gauntlet showed up again, this time in Thanos’ possession in his “I’ll do it myself” moment. That created a conflict because how does Thanos have the gauntlet if it is in Odin’s vault. That problem was resolved in Thor: Ragnarok by Hela explaining it away as a fake.

The explanation for all of this, according to Reddit user cgcs20, is that the concept of the weapon existed prior to Thanos’ quest.
