Why stop there Seival? Why not just let the Dark Spawn corrupt everyone so we follow the direction of the Archdemon? They're the perfect example of a lack of free will. Utopia at last.
oooohh, nice argument, I wonder what he will say 
I think he'll actually like the idea. It sounds nice, really.
Mindless obedience is not intrinsically valuable.
Control with purpose, growth and direction has some arguable benefit. The Darkspawn mindlessly perform the same tasks, the same actions, the same everything, with no hope of advancement. One thousand years from now, the Darkspawn will be doing the exact same thing they were doing 1000 years before. The Tevinter Empire expanded its borders, improved its infrastructure, increased its knowledge and assimilated their territories. For good, bad or indifferent, that is a form of progress, which the Darkspawn do not even begin to achieve.
