I guess theres 2 ways to look at it
Killing 7k people who are as much victims as anything else isn't something most would be able to stomach I agree.
However I alwas kill them on my run simply because the idea of 7k starving vampire spawn running around in the underdark - with all those ways to the surface - screams another apocalyptic scenario to me. I can't see the 6 siblings being much use in stopping them from rampaging madly hunting for food as they are only spawns themselves.
Astarion himself, and his siblings, have had many years to learn to deal with their hunger from Cazador controlling them. They have been in society (when hunting for Cazador) and have got used to dealing with their hunger when presented with a banquet. The spawns haven't as there was no need for Cazador to bother, they were safely locked up, so they have just been left with the pain of the hunger and no experience in how to deal with it.
It seems better to kill them and prevent a vampire apocalypse but obviously its just my opinion and the game leaves it entirely open to interpretation.
I have no idea what happens if you just leave them imprisoned by the way, which was an option I had, but I assume that leaves it to the Gur to kill them - they certainly won't release them either as killing vampires is pretty much what they do.
Killing them yourself means the Gur don't have to kill their own kids (something the Gur leader thanks you for in a roundabout way as she says you have done them a kindness).
