It wouldn't be much of a big glaring impossibility if he used something else to get him into space, like the booster they used for the Strike Rouge. The Freedom simply can't get up there on it's own. It is a mobile suit designed for war. ZAFT designed it to destroy enemy mobile suits, not to make trips back and forth between Earth and space. All of its functions were geared towards combat speed, maneuverability, and heavy cannon weaponry. If ZAFT wanted it back into space, they'd load it up into a mobile suit cargo container and fucking launch it up there with a mass accelerator.
It cannot latch onto the shuttle because it'd only prevent the shuttle from getting to space. If it didn't just kill the shuttle in the process. If it could do so on its own, they would've had Kira take Lacus up there safe and sound without risking her life stealing a ZAFT shuttle from Durandal's own Lacus impersonator. Storywise they could've shut down the same argument they had between the Freedom and the shuttle--that much won't really change. The Archangel's crew would have done what it could to keep Lacus safe, you KNOW that.
That means if the Freedom had the deltaV budget to accomplish the trip and escape Earth's gravitational pull, IT IS A MASSIVE INCONSISTENCY IN THE STORY.
Stop trying to deny the reality of the situation just because someone pointed out that Destiny was flawed in its depiction of the scene. This is beneath you and it's beneath us and it's a fucking disappointment that you'd go this low.
