Yeah, there is nothing wrong with using specialized weapons to contain such impossibly powerful threats as Kryptonians. They could have argued that it was wrong for a CIVILIAN such as Lena to own such weapons, but not against the idea of having them at all. Superman had the same annoying shtick about D.E.O. using Kryptonite in his arc, which was also wrong, because he, too, ended up controlled by Daxammites. With all the ways to make a Kryptonian go nuts and endanger everybody, they shouldn't be so judgmental of people that are getting paranoid.

Also, inconsistent writing regarding how the Worldkillers' powers work. At first we've seen Samantha use her powers whenever Ruby was heart. Later Lena explained that her powers do not work when her "human" consciousness is in control, only when her inner Kryptonian persona takes over, and that her body's physiology completely changes together with the change of personality. Alright, maybe those were some momentary "splashes" of power, as Reign was just coming out. But now Purity is able to use her powers while the "human" is in control for a prolonged time. How does that work? Why didn't her physiology revert to the powerless one?

It's like the writers tried to make their own Split / Legion, but then forgotten the premise at the end of it to make the plot work.
