And what good would that do us? I thought you said you wanted to destroy the creatures, not reason with them.
( It sounds like more of a risk than anything. Even if the reset command was only given to a select few, those could be trusted not to misuse it, it would only breed contempt among everyone else in Beacon. Look at how quickly they turned on Robin, demonizing her even though she had done nothing wrong. Javert frowns a bit, not giving up on his one idea. )
Perhaps the spirits do know something, and they are simply not telling us. We do not know for sure.
I would absolutely rather destroy them, but we don't know where to start. At least language is something we have samples of, or could get samples of. We should learn everything about them that we can.
[There are just too many unknowns. Work with what they have, he figures - until they can get something more to go off of. Destroying a thing the size of a mountain, a thing that resisted all previous attempts to attack it, isn't something they can just go after with guns and swords. Maybe they'll find some method of luring it to its doom and language will be key to that lure. Who knows.]
