I never said that they are not "evil". By human standards they may very well be. But is bargaining with "evil" never an option?
You can bargain with evil when you have some leverage.
We have literally no leverage.
They could kill us all in a variety of different ways.
They could enslave all of us who don't die resisting.
They could easily destroy our planet.
We have nothing they want which they can not take by force relatively easily.
We also have NO WAY WHAT SO EVER to verify ANYTHING they say is true or false, that they could not alter or doctor.
It's like a third grader trying to bargain with a serial killer.
It's effectiveness is 100% in the hands of the serial killer, we (the child) has no bearing on how it turns out other than being a minor nuisance and hopefully persuasive communication.
The only threats we could make would be to fill the ocean with contained bombs that contain every biological and chemical weapon we can think of and every aquatic disease. Even then their tech level is high enough we can't be sure they can't stop them or clean the oceans up anyway, or prevent it in the first place.
You can't bargain with no leverage, it doesn't work. You can only beg and you seem to have some weird need to hear about all of humanity begging and going on and on about how there is no good option. It's almost fetishistic.
