Yet, the Traveler inadvertanly caused those three krill to travel into the planet looking for a way to save it. Never attempting mass genocide may have never resulted in the Hive being created.

Law of the jungle. It's the basis for destiny, look into the other works of Kipling the author of that poem which represents destiny. For truly good things to happen we must use violence
-
Yet violence was against what the Traveler stands for. When the Traveler atrempt an incredibly violent act, it just begets more violence. If the Traveler had followed its nature, the Darkness may have never become this force it is within the Hive.

The Traveler itself is against violence. It doesn't destroy one race to bring another up. It creates Golden Ages and utopias wherever it goes. There was only one known time in the existence of the Traveler where the Traveler itself commits an act of violence: the syzygy. Otherwise, it relies on the races it brought up to defend it or fend for themselves.

It's not about making one race overcome the other, it's about having the power to defend yourself from evil aka the darkness. Every utopia needs a means to defend itself.

Often when trying to change our fate, we only cause it to come to pass

If you've also noticed, the Darknees is pretty much the opposite of the Traveler. The Darkness uses the worms as a proxy to deal with its hosts. The Traveler was fully visible and worked directly with the races it brought up to Golden Ages. The Darkness gives death to the living. If the Hive are to ever stop eradicating life, they will be consumed by the worms inside them. The Traveler gave life to the dead.
