Your slut shaming is ridiculous. "Oh, but he can't kill -this- Shae, who he loves, and isn't a back-stabbing whore." Neither one of them deserve(d) to be murdered.

Oh good lord. No. The problem wasn't that she was 'a backstabbing whore', it was that that's what she was to him. She wasn't his girlfriend, she wasn't his lover, she was his whore. Because that's a legitimate relationship status in the book, and it's different from the actual relationship and love we see in the show. We have to consider the mentality of the book, and--for instance--it would mean something different by his society's standard to kill a slave or servant than to kill a friend or stranger.

Book!Shae betrayed him horribly, and given their relationship, while I wouldn't outright say she deserved to die, it's not a surprise that was her comeuppance, because this world is harsh and unforgiving, and she helped push a man off the brink (who turned out to be a dangerous man). It wasn't unbelievable, though, because she had a purely professional relationship with him. Show!Shae, who has a relationship that goes beyond professionalism, is less believable to kill him and requires more from Tyrion to kill her. It's not slut shaming, I'm not saying 'kill the whores', I'm saying 'In Westeros, killing whores is different than killing lovers'.
