It would only be trivializing them if they found a solution that covered all three of those steps at once. If we don't have a reliable method of killing them off, it's going to make going after them in Garlemald pretty pointless since Lahabrea went right back to his trouble-making not all that long after we exorcised him from Thancred, not to mention there's still a lot of overlords left judging from that cutscene at the end of 2.0.
