We're talking about a magic button that can do anything. Are you so imprisoned by hopelessness that you can't even imagine a magic solution to your problems?
No, I just believe that large changes are cursed, and small changes in the right direction might be enough to enact a bigger change. Think of it like a genie that allows you to wish for anything (likely with cursed results), vs 1000 genies that allow you to wish for small things (also cursed, but with smaller side effects).
