Madoka putting others before herself is exactly why she munchkined, though, and she could only do so due to Homura's sincerity and hard work to reconnect with her.
So, yea, no, the Aesop of PMMM is that people's connections to each other are what cause real changes, as opposed to Kyubey's Utalitarian mindset that reduces the masses into a statistic.
This is, in fact, a common theme in all of Urobuchi's works, that pursuit of an anti-Utalitarian goal for the sake of an emotionally significant individual is valid and important.
Why she munchkinned doesn't change the fact that she needed to.
The dead meguca are dead. We're not going to fix all of history. That would be silly, and we don't need to. Fucking with the past has weird unknowable consequences anyway. Alien guca are... not really my concern. It would be nice to help them too, but one thing at a time. We haven't even saved an island nation yet, much less even our own planet.
Overall I believe absolutely absurdly powerful things that would actually allow us to fight the incubators head on would only come via plot powerup. Timestop is redundant- we have Homura and I don't see why we'd have that ability. Time travel would trivialize everything, so that's probably not possible. We can possibly go FTL with a big experimentation investment, but we've nowhere to go other than earth locations and hence there's not much point.
Madokami fixed all of history and space and she asked for everything to be fixed, so you're saying you want to deny her and deliberately make a worse Universe than canon despite the fact that that is doing the opposite of what Madokami told us to do. Not being concerned with alien meguca is also discrimination and Madoka would find that disgusting. We know that a Madokawish can fix all of history and space, so if we refuse to let her do that and don't fix it ourselves, then all that suffering is our fault.
As for plot powerup, what could possibly power us up that we can't access now?
EDIT:^ She gave them better lives as well. And as those people didn't witch, they didn't need to be saved from that horrible fate.
