The nicest thing I can say about glassing planets is that it's gauche.
It is also sometimes the only possible way. Consider that I arm my police troops, generally build at least one BSY over each homeworld, and generally have that BSY on repeat build troops by the mid-late game. The combination of these factors is why I so easily have several troop transports flying around in one game with around 300 troops loaded on each. I sincerely doubt anyone is going to capture any of my homeworlds any time soon, unless I just loaded all the troops onto a transport a turn or two before the attack.
