Subject: What was the big solution on the ark?

Other than firing the halo rings, what was the big solution against the flood? I don't get it.

The Ark is where they were building another Halo ring. The one they fired. The Ark would launch ALL the Halo rings- with the ark itself being safe since it is outside the range of the Halo Array. But they were building a Halo to replace the one the chief destroyed. So by firing that one, which is outside of the range of everything else (namely... us), they could eliminate the threat (gravemind moved there after all).
