The Ryanair diverts a few months ago (to PIK I believe) also required Pax to remain on board. This was at the request of the Police.
So the reason why no pax evacuation in this case could be a similar reason, some set procedures.
As regards the issue about whether the flightcrew should have paid so much attention to the cabin crews concerns; in all decisions that are made, they are either right or wrong. In the heat of the moment and with details that have been provided, a quick calculated decision needs to be made.
If this decision was wrong....at least lives of crew and pax have not been compromised. Imagine the other scenario....what would you prefer
