Not to step on toes, but speculation is kind of necessary sometimes, as we don't see 100% of these characters' lives. I mean, I'm not saying craft a 20-chapter fan-fiction about how Man-Thing went from being in SHIELD's custody to fighting on Sakaar, but in times of "regular" disasters (or regular in comparison to the disappearance of half of all life), survivors here and there do tend to disappear and be mistaken for casualties until they turn up later. Selvig not only has a talent for going off the grid, he has a history of it, both of which were shown in the Dark World, where he'd been missing for quite a while until he snapped and streaked across Stonehenge. While it is certainly speculation that he would go off the grid during the first few months of the Snap, it's not a particularly unrealistic one.
