After that the reason Earth was involved is they happened to hold two of the gems.
Thanos could go through 14 million time streams and be certain to eliminate the mistakes that could undermine his goals but he isn't that maticulous. And he believes he is invincible so wouldn't bother to look.

Well...and don't you have to think about that? Or using the Gauntlet in that manner? Strange knew to use his gem to look through futures because he knows how his gem works and has used it like that in the past. The only time we see Thanos use the Time gem is on Vision. If Thanos doesn't think to use the Time Gem to check out possible futures, the Gem isn't going to whisper that idea into his ear.
I always kind of felt that the gems give you the ability to "do the things" but not the intimate knowledge of their inner workings. They'll make whatever you think a reality...but you have to think it up, first. I see them like a tool, and only as good as their user.
