I don't blame you for not hearing the difference as I am not sure myself.

I don't see anything in Shargash (even in the viewpoints of his enemies) involving the destruction of souls. As for death, I've already stated that Shargash is also a death god as well as being the Great God of Destruction. Exactly what the Heortlings make of Shargash is an interesting question. Since they do recognize other non-chaotic destroying entities (Zorak Zoran, Oakfed), I don't see it necessary for them to view Shargash as chaotic.
