I'd still sign the treaty. Not to risk having the Emperor's head amidst the Blades'. but the thing is, the only forces the AD had left that could possibly take the emperor's head were the small forces in hammerfell, who were repelled by the redguards and a small number of imperial soldiers, had the empire backed them up after the battle of red ring all the AD would have had were it's small defense forces, there was no reason to sign the WGC, hell Titus Mede II sent the treaty to the AD, he proposed them, sure it was the exact same as what the AD proposed before the war, but he had the upperhand this time, unlike the AD the empire still had a decently large army, he could have actually tried to sign for a truce, instead he gave up, he had the win within sight and he walked back to the starting line to anounce his surrender.

they calls it a peace treaty, but they're terms of surrender, it could have been a peace treaty, hell it could have been that they asked the AD to surrender, but he gave up. Titus Mede II led the bloodiest battle in tamrielic history and he won, but he couldn't bare with the losses and instead wasted their deaths. their deaths meant nothing after the WGC was signed, he could have signed it instead of going through with the battle of red ring, but instead he had many AD and IL soldiers lose their lives for nothing.
