I've read this line of reasoning many times, and it's like saying "Hitler needed to kill 6 million jews to that people would realize he's a bad guy".
No, the correct action would be to fix the system, not to cause a catastrophe so that "regular people" realize anything. Those who need to know already know.
I guess the author already knows that and uses this reasoning to prove a valid point, but I'm firmly against it, it's a fallacy.
