Obviously it wouldn't have been out of spite, but self defense like the play.

Agreed. By this point in the story, the focus should be on Romeo and Juliet's deaths.
So many stories, so little time.

That's one of the least popular parts of the play and often omitted.
Paris has done nothing wrong, and there's already had enough tragedy. Romeo's posthumous image as a hero of the town is also much more believable if he hasn't just assassinated a Count.
Now, if Paris was a hateful character, it would be different.
