I don’t understand your statement.
Would you have kept the SWA at the threshold and sent Alaska 772 around also?
I don’t know if there was further landing traffic close behind the Alaska 772 that would also have stopped the SWA from departing.
You don’t mean you’d have launched the SWA with landing traffic at 2 miles and a go around at the up wind end of the runway?
