I just feel like it was in that preparation. If they had not been dealt this justice, a plot to overthrow Solomon would have been quickly in the works. Or, some other plot that would go against God’s plans for Solomon.

Okay TLC, let me throw this out: perhaps David isn’t dying with revenge on his heart. As a well established, powerful king, David had mercy he could dole out on Shimei and he could handle Joab. However, new king Solomon won’t have the power to be merciful to to Shimei. Mercy to him would undercut his kingdom, as demonstrated by the mercy he bestowed on his half brother. As with Joab, there is no way Solomon could have handled such a bloodthirsty man. Supporting the wrong son was probably it.
