Ruby received a very small charge to the face. Consider the diameter of Roman's flare projector. It's pretty small, much smaller than Magnhild's bore. That's a significantly lower yield than a grenade.

I will ignore the Doylistic concern about the show's rating. Consider, though, that humans can be pretty fragile. Some shrapnel in the wrong place can be fatal. Now consider overpressure waves, heat, and shrapnel from larger explosions. Going back to your gameplay analogy, I'd suggest that it's more like 100 Shield and 10 HP.

Remnant probably has nukes. They just don't use them, for the same reason we don't use them.
