Couple of things.
1) The vehicle was an APC not a tank. APCs have people in the back, soldiers,
corp goons, guards and in the situation - yes they did have grenades. A'Deus
was playing a PC in that run and doesn't really know what took place in the
back. It only takes one person to panic and lose control. Here's a possible
scenario -> 1 guy panics and opens fire. Someone else jumps on him to stop him
shooting. In the ensuing struggle, a grenade is primed. It may not be the most
logical course of events but when one person loses it, some times illogical
things happen. The PCs were in over their head through no real fault of their
own and I cut them a little slack for creative use of a non combat spell.
Besides, if you are going to be critical, read the message that you are being
critical about. Nowhere did A'Deus state that the grenade was thrown at the
shark, or even primed in anything even remotely resembling rational thought.
