Plenty of degrees of heat turn sand to glass upon impact. Seirōkishi also aren't stupid enough to be standing in the line of fire of such a weapon.

A human body does. Aetanii bodies are a bit more durable. Ten to fifteen minutes in a vacuum: they can get out of the ship easily enough, and the explosion wouldn't kill them. Also, that's not how a normal self-destruct works, unless you're applying this to the Rin.

Added, who said they needed to board? A single Seirōkishi fighter is more than a match for any other pilot, unless that starfighters happens to be one of the overpowered Razorbirds.
