The fact that people will react to it so badly is what stops it happening more often and I would actually call it a survival trait, if every game had completely anonymous players and email addresses it would happen a lot more often, the fact that people take it so badly is probably a genetic trait that developed to allow the human race to be able to cooperate with one another. If we just brushed it off it would be completely common place with everyone just doing whatever they liked and society could not function so we'd still be living in caves beating each other over the head assuming that is we hadn't been wiped out by a more evolved animal that we'd allowed to evolve in the meantime. We certainly wouldn't be playing stars so we wouldn't be having this conversation. Of course there are few people who seem to be missing the necessary gene but generally they are called psychopaths and have hopefully been locked up.

Going back to your scenario though, I'd still be completely logical in my attacks, it's just that now I'm doing whatever is best to wipe you out than to win the game, if trying to win the game was actually more likely to allow me to wipe you out then that's the route I'd take, if you've done your job correctly though that should be now impossible so my big fleet that you presumably avoided during your attacks is now going to target your spread out fleet and planets to do maximum damage and if I am running away with the game then I presumably already have a much bigger force than you do even if I have lost a half my planets and that will be going fully against you and you won't have enough to be able to stop it.
