Kid Goku is a lot more volatile than Teen / Adult Goku. The Namekian dragonballs were gone but Piccolo was still clinging to life do they could still use the Earth dragonballs.
They could, but seeing a friend get killed by Freeza, when they're not even sure they can survive the battle, and that Piccolo is right there and can be killed, is not gonna make Goku think "Oh, we can resurrect her later".
Hell, back in saiyan saga, the characters were desperate when Yamcha got killed, even though that was his first death.
As much as the fanbase mocks characters for over reacting to someone dying when resurrection is an option, it's still perfectly natural to be pissed when seeing someone die, it'd be really weird if they didn't care.

My man, all Goku had to do was go SSJ3 and shock Vegeta so much the M on his head would have turned into an L and Buu would have never happened.

Goku is a great fighter and battle strategist, but in the heat of battle, I don't think he's thinking about what's happening behind the scenes, calculating who can be resurrected, how the DBs can be used later, etc. He's a very "in the moment" kind of guy.
Bulma is his oldest friend, the one responsible for bringing him down off the mountain and showing him the wonderous world. If she was executed, despite not being a fighter and literally no threat to the vastly powerful Frieza, it would be for no other reason than to spite Goku. To torment him for not being strong enough. That would definitely trigger him.
