There's really no way to write him off without killing him, they had already written off the one person who could cause him to leave (Gypsy, if Carlos wanted to leave after season 4 they had a perfect excuse), and well, I don't blame them for doing the best thing they could do without killing Cisco (and try saying that there wouldn't be riots if they did that, you remember what they did when Laurel lied, and people were fairly split on her, unlike Cisco who is universally beloved).
