I would just like to point out this is my biggest gripe with the movie.

Josh Brolin didn't sacrifice the thing he most cared about. What he most cared about was his plan to kill half the universe. That's what he should have sacrificed to get the wishstone. Instead, he iced a perfectly innocent person that wasn't even hard for him to do.

I think it was just something they loved rather than something they loved the most.

I don't think Natasha and Clint's one would work as well because Clint would have had to lose his wife or children or something.

That's always been my thought. "you must sacrifice something you love" and the whole reason Gamorrah was laughing is because she believed Thanos had no love of anything or anyone.

And of course something like that can't be exactly quantified in scientific terms, so the stone would have to go off whatever the person considers love. So I do believe that Thanos loved her and nebula, but I also don't think his version of what he considers love to be comparable to most other living beings.
