I think there should be some reworking around this. I just had a huge independence faction rise up in my Empire. I let them go. But just out of vengeance because I really hated one of the vassals that left, I declared war using my claim and won. My other vassals also declared war on another one and they won too. So both have come back to my realm. I have two other Duchies I can easily smash which just leaves one other strong Kingdom which I can gain back when I feel like it.

Rather than being a serious problem, it's worked well for me because now I imprisoned that above vassal and revoked all titles and gave them to my son whereas before I had nothing to give him.

Should it be like this?

Yeah it's dumb, it's pretty much always a better idea to let them go, reconquer them and redistribute all their titles.
The only times I wouldn't do this is when my ruler is too old and might die before pressing all his claims
