They needed to close off Jimmy's options. Any reasonable plan 'b' would destroy the future show by allowing Jimmy to have an extra out in his pocket. Now his brother is an adversary, he already burned his best shot at a big time firm, Marco died and his Chicago roots are gone.
Next season jimmy only has one direction to go in and that lends itself to drama. He can make choices but only more narrowly, like which train track to take, rather than open options like where to drive a car off road.
The irony is that his brother was right... so was nacho and Marco. He is slipping jimmy down deep. Guys like that can wear a suit and tie while trying to go white collar, but it itches emotionally until they get the hell out and sink back to their comfort level.
He turned because he finally decided to own who and what he is... After telling nacho he isn't, telling Mike he isn't, telling the kettlemans he isn't, telling Marco he isn't, telling his brother he isn't... He finally accepted he actually is what he is... And that's a very powerful moment in anyone's life.
Can't wait for season two now that jimmy has finally decided to become Saul
