Whether it is dumb or not depends on the purpose of the plauge (we are speaking of artifical plauges here, no?). If the purpose is to clean an enemy colony for colonization, then it would be very handy if the plauge died with the Last available host. If the purpose is to render a planet useless (perhaps when deep behind enemy lines where a friendly colony would be immediately captured) then you would want persistant spores. It might be nice if this were moddable, but it makes sense either way; just for different purposes.
