We try to fix the code, because our code might break someday, or the code of someone we're programmed to care about's code may break. And we'd want them to be fixed as well, rather than trashed.
And you absolutely can just kill every offender. That's certainly an option. Plenty of people have throughout history, and many still do. But our current programming seems to have identified some societal consequences to that which for the most part keeps up from using that strategy at this time in most of the 1st world countries.
Sounds like the computer program has acquired a bug we must fix that was not there at the outset of the programs.
The computers have figured out they are computers. It's a fun new twist!
