As far as tempering, you can't say "she had access to the futurre information" only when it's convenient for your trolling. If she knew tempering was going to occur at any time, obviously her response would be based on that. Her reasons for sundering are boiled down to stopping Zodiark but obviously that isn't just a personal grudge-- it's because of how he affects people and what he represents. That's what you're glossing over to make some weird argument about EW.
    Aight. I'm just gonna say it. I normally try to maintain some degree of civility, but this is getting old. Thus far you've seemed insistent on misrepresenting a rather large number of things, ranging from what the game tells us to the comments and intent of other posters. You've displayed a propensity for clipping specific components of what others have said rather than including enough for the original context to be present, after which you then either reply to a point that was never made, accuse that poster of something, or simply try to reframe the initial comment (sans any of its original context) as something else entirely.

    My dude, people are allowed to have opinions. They're allowed to look at a textbook case of omnicide and go, "you know, I think that's messed up." People are also allowed to analyze a character's actions or lack thereof and conclude for themselves whether or not there was justification for whatever it was they did or did not do. This doesn't mean they're asking to have the story changed or whatever it else you've inferred over the course of this discussion. It means they're choosing to draw conclusions based on the information they've been given, and in this case those conclusions for the most part manifest as a simple question of, "wait, why is this atrocity near-totally glossed over?" Their conclusions about the story are obviously different from yours. This does not invalidate their thoughts on the matter. For that matter, their thoughts on the matter don't invalidate your thoughts on the matter. So relax. This thread isn't some personal attack on the game or its writers, and it's certainly not an attack on a fictional character. It's people sharing their thoughts. Continue voicing your disagreement with other posters if you wish, but do it honestly and respectfully.
