One thing else that could've worked in favor of blasting Shakuras is a mission where the player manages to destroy the Warp Gate to Aiur, but it's still not enough - Void rifts open and the Zerg/Corrupted Protoss/Hybrid from Aiur still pour through, making the situation nigh-irreversible - With a Warp Gate, you could blast it into oblivion, not only shutting the passage but also kill everyone and everything in transit, but how can you shut something that has nothing connecting it?
Something I can agree safely is that the destruction of Shakuras wasn't just rushed, but rather handled callously, poorly exploring Vorazun's character of her sticking to something she'd call a home (She lived there for too long, WTH?) as well as all the cultural/religious artifacts and traditions that the Protoss couldn't evacuate before Artanis went right into the temple. Also, that'd literally be the last option ever conceived, but she's apparently all like 'No, I won't fight harder for it, let's just blow it up.' :p
