They wouldn’t just introduce Mark’s brother only to kill him off instantly

The viltrumites wouldn't come to the planet to kill that baby, win, then not kill the baby.

They could’ve just forgotten

As interesting as it would be, I'll be extremely disappointed if that baby isn't dead. It's so stupid to have them "forget" their primary reason for being there. And even if they did, at any point, one can remember, fly over and kill him in a second now that Omniman is gone. Same for virtually any "Mark sneaks the baby away to earth" plan, it's simply not doable.

They didn’t know the baby existed until they saw it though, they were only there for Nolan and left when they got Nolan

the only Viltrumite who knows about it is the one who got slashed and he’s currently passed out in recovery
