[Star Wars] Was General Kotas suggest of not killing The Emperor stupid?

Within Star Wars the Force Unleashed Star Killer ultimately manages to knock down and essentially defeat The Emperor, however before Star Killer has the chance of killing him General Kota says "if you strike him down in anger, you'll be right back where you began" However even if he did strike him down in anger its not like Star Killer would immediately turn on everyone and turn to the dark side.

If anything he would be doing the galaxy a favour. So was Kotas suggestion ultimately stupid and short sighted?

Given how Palpatine immediately jumps right back up and is shooting lightning like no tomorrow, Starkiller’s chances of actually killing Palpatine are quite possibly in the *negative*. It was all a final ploy by the Emperor to turn the kid, and Kota was wise enough to recognize it. 

Besides, Starkiller is a deeply, deeply troubled young man. His whole journey so far is abandoning the teachings of Vader and trying to do good because it’s the right thing to do. For him to strike down Palpatine there would have been in anger and hate for all that he had suffered, not simply doing what needed to be done. No Jedi worth their salt would ever let maybe doing the universe a favor get in the way of keeping someone off the Dark Side.
