They could've but considering they've killed him before, including to start that season, it probably wouldn't have had much of an impact. And doesn't Doomsday come back in the comics anyway? Davis being DD could've been more interesting than it was, though the weird retcons especially with the pilot was a strange decision.
I remember reading that they tried to show Davis and Clark not liking each other to build up to the finale, but... They were barely in any episodes together... True, they wasted a lot of time with that Chloe/Davis plot. She had better chemistry with him than she did with Jimmy but still, it was silly to give her all his screentime when he was supposed to be one of the biggest Superman villains there is only to barely interact with Clark.
Yikes, that says more about how bad BvS was than anything positive about Smallville.
