I think it's a little absurd to hold Venat responsible for thier actions.
But venat was literally relying on it happening. The main point is SHE KNEW what would happen, and still did it anyways. She knew they would rejoin shards, she knew billions of lives would be lost and she still went through with it anyway instead of looking for some other way.
