If the Empress was with Simon then Lustlord or Xerces would have come too late due to her barrier. While Sabitha is a wildcard I doubt she would do such a move when she gives Wendis a much needed Demonic Seed. So, it was either a contigency of Estaven, serving as a middle finger to anyone who managed to beat him, or Ginasta spared Simon from further corruption and walked off. Watsonian Explanation: Wendis was too busy paying attention to Tanurak and trying to sneak off with the Sage of Ghenalon's motorcycle while no one was looking to have prepared for Estaven's Incubikaze attack.

Doylist Explanation: If we had set off a shard acquisition cascade, the game would have ended. Dammit. I am now picturing a pixel Gadalf casting spells on a motorcycle. I really doubt that Wendis would go for the bike though. Practicing her hits with a punchbag made of the rotting remains of an Incubus Asshole would make her scream with orgasm everytime she punched it. It has to be Robin. She always wanted to be a cool action girl. The bike was all she needed to accomplish her dream.

On topic: I assume it's significantly harder to prepare a net of sufficient size and fineness to catch a bunch of tiny shard fragments. Any preparations were presumably for catching the whole thing or the Fucklord himself. I'd think of it as trying to catch a school of minnows with a net intended to catch a shark.
