I think if Vito had lived another five years, so would have Carlo, working cozily in Vegas while all the time his eventual fate awaited. Michael may have wanted to whack Carlo as soon as it was clear he set Sonny up...but could've been talked out of it & told to wait by Vito, who may not have wanted to be involved in making his only daughter a widow. Patience was a key in Vito's world, and I would guess it became one in Michael's as well.
Just a theory.

Good theory. But still I don't see carlo being alive after the day of reckoning whether Vito lived to move to Vegas or not.
