Problem with this argument is that basically all the starks suffered much more than this and wouldn't do what she done.

Jon was killed by his comrades in the night watch.

Sansa have already been summarized here.

Bran was tossed from a tower for seeing incest and inherited the memories of the world and all treason there.

Arya would be the one that was least betrayed and who would guess is the most vengeful one.

None of them have dragons. I'm pretty sure Sansa and Arya, at some point in her stories would liked burn KL to the ground too. Nobody has the power Dany has in this story, so no one can be compared to her.

You can guess Jon and Bran wouldn't do it, in any cirucumstances, but the rest of the Starks.....mmm.

Besides all of this, Dany has the arrogant gen of the Targaryen. She sees herself as a superior being to others. She was stolen of her birthright. She has grown living with resentment. Daenerys has been shown multiples times not differentiating fairly who are true enemies or not. Like when she considered Ned Stark as guilty as Robert Baratheon for assassinating her family, something that Jorah had to convince her was not fair because Ned would have never killed a baby, and that he wasn't even in KL at the moment. 

Daenerys has barely shown mercy against her enemies throughout the story. It was just that until now, Daenerys' enemies and the audience enemies were the same. It's more a problem of hipocresy of the audience than anything else. We like to critizise and judge others severely because we like to be right until another one does the same against us. That's why is so dangerous a leader/revolutionist character like Daenerys.

In the end she decided Cersei, KL population and anyone not supporting her are going to be her enemies. If you are not with me, you are against me. Not middle terms. Absolutism mentality.

Yes maybe Sansa or Arya would, never seem signs showing that they would though.

And as said by several people here there is a difference between she being in her dragon and let's say they kill her best friend and at that moment she snaps and makes something she regrets later and having suffered before the battle, winning and then snapping.

Also you replied yourself, she is the crazy one, with arrogant, self-serving, self-important, unforgivable attitude. Arya and Sansa were able to "forgive" or at least tolerate Jaime and Imp after what happened to their family. Jaime was very much part of the murdering of their father, mother and brother. The girls wanted to "burn" KL metaphorically, not kill all the citizens.

I do agree with you that since the beginning it was show that she wasn't mentally sound and fair as the starks. She have been ruthless, egoistical, power hungry, cruel and much more since the beginning. She just happen to be anti-slavery and feminist so she was applauded for what she did so far before this battle.
