Clark,
You are right about that, but I tend to let the chips fall where they may. When I played the Battle of Bardron VI, and saw them lighting up Taurus like a christmas tree, I briefly thought about ejection seats, or compartments being thrown from the wreckage, but decided against it. His number was up. The war continues.
Here is a mention of the lucky few that survived the destruction of RSS Ceta:

RSS Ceta was the next target of the Rage. Her gunnery crew was delivering very accurate fire and had destroyed two of the Rage batteries, but it was not enough to help her survive. The beams quickly overwhelmed her shields, and methodically tore the destroyer apart. Her bow tore away as one Rage beam sliced the ship in half. Debris and gasses filled the space around the ship as another Rage beam tore into Ceta’s exposed compartments. This beam burned down the length of the ship, reducing the interior of the ship to molten slag. With no structure to contain them, the engines tore away from the shell of the hull and continued on their path toward Bardron VI, as if eager to escape the carnage. Only five of her crew would survive the battle.

That's why I am happy that Gina is now a senior officer. She sits in an office now. Nothing less than glassing the planet (or an assassin!) would be needed for her to die, and even then, they would probably save a shuttle for her.
Sakazawa was going to take command of Ukra-Tal fleet formally after the Rage were defeated, and may have even replaced Urian. But, this worked out the way it did.
