SPOILERS FOR CHAPTER 22 AHEAD:

I personally think the 'sacrifice' choice is the best option/ending in the book. Here's why:

Yes, the Vanguard have kept the peace for a while, but they're no way of knowing how they'll use the charges. What if some corrupt Admiral takes power and uses them to instill fear across the galaxy?

The Jura are extremists and fanatics. If we give them the charges, they could do some serious damage to settlements and innocent planets. It's shown in previous chapters they're not afraid to do collateral damage to achieve victory.

The Peace option might seem nice at first, but you're still giving superweapons to both sides. One wrong move, and the outcome will be worse than the first two with both sides 'nuking' eachother.

So, yeah, the best option is to take the charges with you, sacrifice yourself, and prevent people from getting their hands on dangerous weaponry. Kinda sad, but when you think of it, Option D might be the most logical choice in this scenario.
