Hey Diana!
I like the spirit of your questioning. I too attempt to try and rationally evaluate things I read, be them in the Ra material or elsewhere.
Anyways, I think that it might be helpful to let go of the idea that these beings are quite as advanced as you are describing them to be. It's easy to fall in to that mode of thinking, but they are not gods. Just further down the road than we are. Perhaps if they were wiser (no insult to the Confederation implied) the scenario of a malfunctioning nuclear drone wouldn't have come up at all because they would have some more sophisticated means.
Such as it was, I still believe they most likely went ahead with the solution in which they felt minimized destruction of any kind.
