Right. Even though the lady had reason to draw a firearm, that would have been - at that point - a poor decision.

Pepper spray someone, and in five years you won't much remember the incident.

Shoot someone, and it will be with you forever.

Don't misunderstand me, sometimes lethal force is the only option. But it will permanently change the lives of everyone involved, not just the criminal.
