Can you provide more details about your setup? Did you have anything else connected to the Pi that could have provided an alternate power path. Was the Pi in a case or was it a bare board. Shorting various things will kill it dead and it is easy to short the GPIO header with a metal ring.I don't believe there is anything else i can do to troubleshoot, can I? Safe to assume the Pi is shot? Stinks that unplugged it literally killed it..
Assuming you have a Pi without external stuff connected, removing the power by pulling out the USB C connection, is not going to kill the hardware. It can corrupt the uSD card, depending on what was going on. Unflushed writes on open files, and low level wear levelling activities can mess up to the file system to the point where the Pi will not boot. This is uncommon but does happen.
