Well, let's just say that you're right that doing so would be against her essential nature and I can imagine that you could squeeze a season or so of angst out of this as she tries to come to terms with the fact that, for some humans, there is no redemption nor any way to render them harmless and that there is only one way to keep the innocent safe.

Except Ruby doesn't need angst atm... she's already struggling with those same themes with Cinder. So even if she does need angst in the future, She'll already have dealt with the exact same Scenario. As for Emerald Pissing off Ruby to stop being "friends" Ruby already had that scenario with Penny, so she likely wouldn't change her mind, while Emerald isn't stupid, so she wouldn't say that if a foe had a chance of surviving... which RWBY has a knack for
