This exact idea you're spouting is what so many took issue with in Endwalker, the way those who came before's lives are treated as dispensable or inevitable in their demises whilst the Sundered get every excuse in the book. Why are you so doggedly unwilling to offer them the same moral standards for life?
ok no, let me stop you right there. its not about who deserves to live or die. its not about preference, hell its not even about morality. all i said was if venat is stopped the present as it stands cease to be (in that timeline). thats all. thats it. thats the whole thing. (plus canonically only us and krile have the echo, so no not every scion had an ancient equivalent.)
