Chiaki speaks up from out of the small crowd Jack has gathered here, holding her hand out as she steps forward.
"That's a bad idea. A really bad idea."
It's time for a Hope Speech. And if everything Jack has told her about the Doctor is true, Chiaki knows it will get through.
"We can't just cut off the energy flow from this world to Crystallis," she explains. "...Well, we can, but we shouldn't. Jack is being sustained by his crystal right now, which is powered by his connection to this place. If you cut that off, even if he isn't instantly crystallized on the spot, he likely will be when we return. Also, he'll lose all of his powers, since they originate from here."
But even more than that...
"Also, the energy from the Heroes' worlds is currently what's helping to hold back the Calamity. Severing that connection is the same thing as dooming Crystallis. We have a chance to help them, and free their world from the cycle of despair."
Shaking her head, she looks the Doctor straight in the eye.
"It's wrong to make that decision for them. Shouldn't we believe in hope, and give their world the chance to live instead? Even if the odds are next to impossible, don't they deserve that chance?"
