It also doesn't stop it

Say the orphan crushing machine crushes 100 orphans an hour.
Influencing the orphan crushing machine does not impact your ability to try to destroy the orphan crushing machine.
You can influence the orphan crushing machine towards crushing 99 orphans an hour.
In what possible scenario should I not take that action. It doesn't stop the orphan crushing machine, but if it takes us a year to destroy the orphan crushing machine, that's 8,700 orphans we saved from getting crushed.
