Although arguing the novels were sub-standard writing may be besides the point, I'd agree with MDGeistMD02 on the first point. The quoted passage may or may not indicate Jindosh was eliminated non-lethally, but I don't think it's unambiguous or explicit enough to be sure.

As long as there is room for interpretation and debate (as happening here), restraint in accepting either version as fact may be due.
