I wouldn't really describe it as forcing you to have a victory lap. I'd argue it's playing the gamemode, as well as encouraging the crew to actually combat the antag. There are a lot of times the shuttle is called when really you haven't won yet. It's just a ton of people who have no interest in that antag or fighting it. They just want to restart because they don't like it, or they think they will lose. Or rather it's one single head of staff or AI who just decides "Nah time to end."
I feel like if it's that miserable to keep fighting the enemy until they reach their objective or you win, then that's a problem with the gamemode, right? There's always a chance for the most chaotic of come backs, and if the enemy already "Won". Like legitimately, and not just the playerbase refusing to fight it at all - if the antag had actually wiped out most of the people.
Then it should reach its objective pretty quickly anyways and the round will end with no resistance.
Maybe preventing the calls all together indefinitely is too much, but I really think something should be done. Even if it's just temporary. Or a longer shuttle during these rounds due to "precautionary" measures or something.
I'll once again just make my comparisons to imagine if nukies arrived and the crew just all went to escape and said "You win." That'd be lame. Sure, they "Won" but it's not really much of a round is it? I also saw that most recent flock-round, and it's really not as rare as people think, this happens a lot. Blob round, a couple seccies die close to the beginning. "Blob is winning". Shuttle call. Same thing happened with the flock here.
