As someone from an area that gets wildfires, I support this. It's not good for the forest to put out every wildfire, we have been doing so, for so long that it will take a while to transition to proper forest management. While selective logging doesn't help the plants that rely on small fires, it at least prevents larger fires and reduces disease propagation, with an overall positive effect.

Just because something feels like the right thing to do, from an anthropocentric perspective, it doesn't mean it's actually beneficial to real-life nature and wildlife.
