** Maybe it was the whole idea? Makaan wasn't exactly the reasonable kihd of leader, and many Vaygr warlords may secretly want to remove him. Trapping him in Balcora would be a perfect way to get rid of him without open rebellion or suspicious assasination. Especially if Makaan left some vague instructions like "do not let anyone follow me till I order so", which could be interpreted as "do not let anyone follow me at all cost", justifying the destruction of the gates.

** Even worse would probably be the question "How did a few thousand rebels from a desert planet manage to defeat a galaxy-spanning empire that had a 4000-year head start on them?" The Taiidan rebels and the Galactic Council didn't help until the very end.

It is stated, that the second mission took place on the outskirts of Kharak system. This means relatively close to Kharak - Khar-Selim, a sublight ship, was able to travel this far in just ten local years. So a relatively short time passed between Mothership hyperjump from Kharak, rendevouz with wreck of Khar-Selim and jump back to Kharak.
How exactly Taiidan empire managed in such a short time not only to notice the activation of hyperdrive on Kharak, but also figure out that it was Kuushans who done it (and not someone else merely investigating the system), order a massive fleet action, fight through the defenses and deploy planet-destroying weapon on Kharak (it's axtually kinda weird that merely border patrol fleet have access to such weaponry... okay, it may be justified as some kind of ensured retaliation plan against possible first strike from some other opponent). All this despite having to travel much greater distance on less advanced hyperdrive than Second Core.
