Eg. I could suggest nuking Moscow to end the Ukraine war. And if anyone is against that, I could then ask "well, do you have a solution for the war in Ukraine?", and if that person does not come up with a good solution I can feel emboldened to stick with my nuking Moscow plan.
"What else should be done?" is a question, not an argument.
And is commonly and reasonably asked any time there is disagreement over a policy.
Hard for me to imagine a situation in which someone could not come up with a better response to Ukraine than nuking Moscow.
