If Sylar is able to gain Claire's power, he will become indestructible and a bigger threat than he would be otherwise.	In String Theory it is revealed that Future Hiro enlisted Peter's help in order to stop Sylar from getting Claire's power.	- Claire could be killed by Sylar in the Dark Future. (Five Years Gone). So, if Sylar gained Claire's power it wouldn't necessarily mean that he'd become indestructible, since Claire could be killed while possessing her power.
Claire's survival was necessary to save the world, because she's the one who changes Nathan's mind to save Peter from exploding. If Claire wasn't alive, Nathan would have just let Peter explode instead of flying him up into the sky to explode. If Sylar had killed Claire, he would have gotten her power and Nathan would have never changed his mind about the bomb and Peter exploding. Even if he did change his mind, Sylar would have regenerated, so before Nathan could fly Peter out of there Sylar might have stopped them or killed them, taking their power and becoming too powerful for anyone to stop him.	None.	- It is clear in String Theory that Hiro thought that saving Claire would prevent Sylar from being able to regenerate after he was stabbed. Hiro thought that if Sylar didn't have that power, then he would have been killed and there would have been no explosion. Claire probably did affect Nathan's judgment, but that's not why Hiro told Peter to "save the cheerleader". • If Nathan hadn't have flown Peter away, he could still have been shot, but Claire may have been the only person able to get close enough to do it, so she would have been required either way. On the other hand, there appeared to be ample time to shoot Peter before his emissions became dangerous, as evidenced by he, Nathan and Claire being able to have a fairly long conversation before either Nathan or Claire suffered any immediate damage.
