Destiny had horrible writing. That's been established for years. Even if your rooting for Kira and co to crush Shinn and Zaft it's still horrible.

And we know he was going to fire it at Orb at the end. He outright says so, and Shinn echos his thoughts when fighting Athrun, saying that the world can't be saved unless Orb is totally destroyed. And its stated by everyone in the CF trying to stop him that Orb is going to be blasted if they don't hurry. It is however lacking a dramatic "Prepare to fire at Orb!" as you stated. Everyone already knows its the target at the final battle begins, and its not clear how they found this out (but they are right, because Durandal directly states that after clearing out the ships with Neo Genesis they'll fire Requiem at Orb)

The only question is if he was only targeting Orb because they were attacking him (ie, Destiny Plan is totally optional and Kira and Lacus are paranoid idiots attacking him without cause) or if he would have done it anyways if they didn't accept and would have done the same to everyone that wasn't part of the plan.

Well I say question but its obviously the latter, just that some Kira haters won't accept that.
