Regardless of whether or not it's possible to get rid of the disc:
Nukies are powerful and the crew need tools to help fight the nukies. Having more options is useful for the crew, but the added options also adds extra things for the nukies to do. If more disks were added that solely benefit the nukies, they suddenly have more toys to use against the crew, while the crew get nothing in return. To maintain balance and interesting mechanics, reward the crew for even temporarily taking control of the nuke, even if it's just for 30 seconds while the syndies regroup and prepare to take back the nuke. Not enough time to destroy it, but enough time to make it harder for the Syndies to defend the nuke - another incentive to not let crew anywhere near the thing.
