The very same argument used to declare that the Ascians should have just rolled over and allowed Venat to wipe out their civilisation in its entirely, including their entire race as well as all knowledge of their existence. With such horrific stakes in play and the alternative being the loss of absolutely everything one cares about, I daresay justifications can be found.
