(Proposed edit due to possible invalidation of above theory)

--It is expressly stated that the act of killing a Shards vessel is not the reason for Vin's death. Due to the unique set of circumstances present, Vin was both in control of the abilities of Preservation, but not yet fully attuned to it's Intent. Vessels are also allowed to express the Intent of a shard through their own viewpoint. Thus, while the Intent of Preservation is to preserve all things, no matter if they are good or bad, a partially attuned Vin was able to view the destruction of the vessel of Ruin as the correct act of Preservation, from a worldly standpoint, and was able to use the abilities of the Shard to do so. Whereas this act was permitted through her view of Preservation of the world itself, it was counter to the Intent of the Shard she held. Whereas normally, violating the Intent of a held Shard wouldn't be possible, Vin had not fully attuned Preservation and was able to do so. However, in doing so, she caused her own death when the Shard (now an integral part of her existence) was torn away forcefully; the Shard is bound to it's own intent, and cannot possibly remain anywhere where it's intend is violated (similar to how dark and light can't exist in the same space; you can force light to be where the darkness is, but in turn, the darkness cannot remain there, by law of nature). Since there is no other written example of one shard killing another directly, but it is know to have happened off page, and since the systems outlined in the books are seen to not allow loopholes by nature of cosmic balance and mechanics (the actual rules and foundation of the Cosmere), even an indirect method would be the same as a direct. Therefore, it must be possible to do this, and the instance of Preservation and Ruin was an isolated and highly specific incident. As such, I would propose that the above theory be edited to reflect the quantifiable mechanics of the Cosmere, as illustrated in this comment, to not create a situation where readers are given potentially faulty assumptions about the book world. This comment can be removed itself, after the editorial determination is made, as well.--
