From a morale perspective your right, but it doesn't take a genius to realize the incredible asset you have in front of you. Inori's void is exceptionally powerful. None of what he has done would of been possible without her void. Also this is his regime, his word is law.
What he did was absolutely necessary, there literally was no other way he could ensure the majorities survival. If he kept putting up the nice guy act, the rest of the school would've split up, everyone would follow whoever they thought could save them. Everyone would part ways fight against each other, and in the end they'd all lay dead.

I'm not even sure if the writers even care anymore because Shu was entirely out of line during that scene

No he wasn't, he's in love with her after all, why would he let him punish his girl?
He also didn't know why Hare and the girl died until recently. Yahiro was using Shu to fill his own agenda, and it would've kept going unless that girl died in front of him. He still realizes that using the voids is necessary to they're survival, although Yahiro was lying and covering everything up.
This time it's worse because everyone's death due to a broken void was framed on Shu, even though it's Yahiro's fault. Not only that but instead of clearing everything up, he joins Arisa's rebellion instead.

This isn't the Shu from 5 episodes ago, he doesn't care about his social standing, or anyone's opinion either. After Hare's death he matured, and grew as a character considerably. She's the only one he can open up to, and the only one that accepts him for who he is.

Hare was the turning point. Whether he did this out of rage or depression isn't the question. But rather, did it work? did they cross through? Did the majority survive? Answer is they did, whether he handled the situation wrong, doesn't matter, he led them across while doing most of the effort himself. That's all that matters, he fulfilled his temporary role while being betrayed by the entire school over a misunderstanding. Now everyone hates him because of Yahiro.
