Feeding one's ego which Shinnok is more than capable of doing is incredibly reasonable, Daegon's more or less not the smartest guy in the bunch, why would you boost someone's confidence if they're not too smart, quite simple so they think they've got the potential to take out something powerful, it's called a loose end and why would Shinnok, the guy who's completely hellbent on taking control of the realms risk something like that? That and it could easily be a last act of desperation to get the power, it's literally a final battle between good and evil, I honestly doubt Shinnok would sit idly by in the chance Raiden or any of the good characters would get the power to defeat all evil.

You really defeated all purposes of your logic in the final sentence of the second paragraph, "Quan Chi's holding Moloch's head and he's dead by canon, so by that extension it must confirm the dialogue to be accurate".

That's incredibly wrong, there's a difference between confirmed information being used for an animation than dialogue with no credibility, also you're wrong on the implication anyway, if you'd read the comics Kitana was the one who killed Moloch.

The arcade battles are more or less non-canon, look at how the Revenants are still human, that's a big giveaway.

And as I mentioned more than once, Shao Kahn had literal overpowered God tier power which is more or less outright stated to be able to rival the Elder Gods, Shinnok is a former Elder God and if there's anything to go by Shao Kahn's ending, conquered EVERYTHING, why would Shao Kahn even want to risk anyone trying to usurp his power?

I vaguely recall it being mentioned by John Vogel as well that the only survivors at the time were Raiden (briefly) and Shao Kahn for obvious reasons.

You say you think Shinnok may have survived Armageddon, that's cool and all. But trying to force us to have your viewpoint on official information for the Wiki which has been deduced and confirmed by the NRS staff isn't going to happen.
