According to the library forum, a library is a place were genom sequences are stored. What if what the forerunners had mapped every genom sequence that could lead to sentiency in the index in the library, and when Halo fires the pulse causes cells whit that mapped genom to be destroyed. Then, if it is so, you could set Halo to only target some genom sequences and not to wipe out all sentient life in the galaxy, which would turn Halo into a real weapon and not some suicide blow it all up mass destruction obliteration uncontrollable total anhilation weapon of complete and utter destruction of everything with sufficient brain to understand all the words I just wrote ( I don't)
Got a little carried away there, sorry. I base this from when Guilty spark says something about intilizing his "mass sterilzation protocolls", as if he has other protocolls aswell, and when Cortana says "If the monitor, or his sentinels, find a way to activate halos final weapon, without the index". Note the words "final weapon", which in my opinion implies other weapons aswell. I also base this on the voices in my mind...
