When you consider the scale of the galaxy and all of the inhabited worlds if you could stop an insurrection by destroying one planet wouldn't you do it? Did the empire have unlimited resources to occupy hundreds of millions of planets? How many life forms would die in a protracted galactic war?
Have you ever seen the movie?
To-morrow, and to-morrow, and to-morrow,
Creeps in this petty pace from day to day,
To the last syllable of recorded time;
And all our yesterdays have lighted fools
The way to dusty death. Out, out, brief candle!
Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player,
That struts and frets his hour upon the stage,
And then is heard no more. It is a tale
Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,
Signifying nothing.
