Exactly. If we keep doing it, clearly it is not the answer but rather a postponement

    This is a situation like tolerance. People who are for tolerance do not need to tolerate intolerance to be tolerant, same goes for non-violence.

    Clearly the answer to hunger is not eating. The answer to being tired is not sleeping. The answer to making a mistake is not apologizing...

    Violence is not a biological need. If you keep making the same mistake, an apology isn't the answer since clearly it means nothing. An actual apology with actual effort to not repeat that mistake is important

    Violence is not a biological need.

    You are clearly not familiar with the vast majority of animals on earth. The capacity for violence is very much a biological need, even if just to defend ones self.
