While it may be ruthless but at least your enemies are not in a military position to counterattack you in a very near future. (this will also mean occupation)
Historically, this doesn't work, and letting one side "win" has generally lead to a much greater disaster than having a stalemate situation. In the less abstract sense, there hasn't been an opportunity for the protagonists in either Seed or Destiny to do this, although the balance of power has shifted so that the EA is no longer capable of much aggression.

Nonsense. The morals of this debate are quite straightforward. In fact, I even agree with most of your points; it's just that you don't seem to be applying them properly to Destiny.
