Arguably destroying ourselves is the better option, because it gets it over with and begins the rebuild faster. Or simply shortens the suffering period.
Planned destruction can be very helpful and important, it is called "demolition". Unplanned destruction coming but only at a random near-future time is called "a deathtrap".
I prefer controlled burn. Same spirit, but that undemolished building will only damage so much around it. The wildfire will burn out of control quickly, rapidly, and damage more than we could even imagine until it happens.
