I’m not sure that we should celebrate the deaths of millions as a boon to society. I Imagine all the beautiful contributions to the arts, innovations and society that we missed out on.

Nobody said to celebrate, just that we should learn from history.

If we could recreate the effects (higher wages, lower living costs) without the cause (millions dead), maybe we could reap the same benefits.
