An action that is morally wrong can still lead to good (the stealing bread from the rich to feed the starving quandary).

Yes, Venat's actions did harm.

The Ancients were also about to do harm. They were going to sacrifice all the newly created life without its consent. How is that morally better than what Venat did?

Was this a no-win situation where the only way out was to do something morally wrong?

What we're lacking is the story of what would have happened if the Sundering had not occurred. Would it have had a happy outcome or would their salvation have been shortlived? We received a few hints that things may not have turned out for the better though we can't truly know what was in the minds of the writers.
