Actually, the 'Fire Until Weapons Gone" strategy is only in effect UNTIL all enemy weapons are gone on all units/planets. Then the AI combat routines go into massacre mode and finish off all the unarmed ships/bases/planets they can get to before turns run out. So all this setting really does is make your strategic combat more efficient. If a ship cannot fire at you, fire at ships that can, until no ships can, then finish them all off.
