Why is it "odd" to continue the display? It's what you were there for, what does stopping it achieve? There's nothing you can do to assist your oppo after all.
Why too is it odd to depart whan so cleared? Why would you even want to stay there if the wreck is secure? "here" may not be a suitable or convenient place to leave it. There is every reason to get the other airframe home and maybe even more so in the event of an accident - being on site is hardly necessary.
