I'm not sure I understand that line of thinking, but everyone is entitled to their own opinion. I can have a beef with someone without wishing for them to be dead (to use an analogy).
I had a beef with a specific mod over there, and so I voluntarily left. Just took my ball and glove and went home after putting years of content on that site. Be that as it may, my beef was with that mod, rather than the entire site, but even after they "un-modded" him, I never went back. By then, I had found other places to be. I never harbored any animosity to the site itself, just that mod, but the damage was done.
There are others here, however, who have a beef with the entire site, for valid reasons.
So my reasons for putting out the call that RN3 is here are not aimed at destroying ATS, or even diminishing it. I just understand the sense of loss that it's sudden disappearance engenders, and hope to give those who answer that call a softer place to land and regroup than I had.

Diogenes was eating bread and lentils for supper. He was seen by the philosopher Aristippus, who lived comfortably by flattering the king.
Said Aristippus, ‘If you would learn to be subservient to the king you would not have to live on lentils.’ Said Diogenes, ‘Learn to live on lentils and you will not have to be subservient to the king.’
