@CNBA: Precht was the one who created that crystal in the first place. If there is anyone who knows how to get something out of that crystal without destroying it it would be him.

And even if that is impossible, then he can just smash the crystal, extract Larcade and then create a new crystal.

Fairy Glitter wasn't used by Mavis and Cana to destroy the thought projection due to it being the only spell that can do it, but due to it being the strongest spell they had available and thus their best chance to make it work.

We've seen freaking weak-ass Jacob damage Mavis' ethereal body for crying out loud! If a loser like Jacob can do it without even trying hard, then surely Precht can find a dozen of ways to accomplish the same thing.

Erm... what does Erza being or not born yet or Mavis knowing what happened while she was crystalized have to do with any of the arguments? oO
