The answer is that for ge'ulah there is no one else to thank (as
you write). Geulah implies that God did it alone with no sh'liach
or sh'luchim.

The second distinction means that an agent carried out God's will.

Unfortunately, it is tempting to split hairs but the distinction still
remains in my thinking.
