Yes, the Limsans were wrong to slaughter the kobold. The story and I both agree with that.

Primal are a weird case because thier existence is inherently unstable, and we don't really "kill" them when we disperse thier aether. They are perfectly capable of being summoned again, and seem to have some vague continuity of existence between summoning.

Also worth pointing out the the Japanese names for trials involving primals are "subjugation missions" while the ones for non-primals are usually along the lines of "elimination missions."
