Here's something that popped into my head - couldn't they have taken care of the reality and power stones at the same time by going to the Collector when the Guardians arrived there in gotg1? Both stones would have been there briefly before the explosion happened

Maybe too many people around, too much danger of running into people? While just dealing with a single Quill made it seem so easy, and it would've been ordinarily....

But really it served two primary purposes:
(1) get the hammer back
(2) give Thor his nice personal moment to complement Tony's in the 70s
