Oh yes, because using your greater power and technology to fix problems has never worked out poorly in the past.
It's the same reason why we can't just go and build all new pumps in areas where there's no water. You can fix the symptoms, but that doesn't fix the actual problem. I used to be a superhero, you know. I was more prone to fuck things up than fix them -- and I only know of a few worlds where superpowers don't fuck things up. [ A cough. YEAH HE KNOW U ] But those worlds are... probably a bit more uniquely suited to that sort of thing.
