Gotcha!

Not at all....I'm trying to understand how others didn't see it the same way as me. Nothing more or less....I don't give a crap about gotchas....I want to know why people are cool with her choice, which was, IMO, clearly telling the bad guy to kill trillions.

She knew she was using Nala as a proxy, though. Yes?

Maybe, she looked conflicted and got caught up in her own emotional trauma. Its already established she's got lots of psychological issues and disassociates herself from consequences - like she did with the murder during the robbery - so I can see her doing the same regarding Nala as proxy.
She just focussed on Nala, she isnt responsible for what Braka chooses to do after that.
