The thing is, a lot of people were using this trope to mean exactly that, when it originally meant \\\"trying to destroy the world to relieve his and/or the world\\\'s suffering\\\". So the definition of the trope got changed to mean, well, exactly what you\\\'re describing, even though the \\\"destroyer of worlds\\\" part no longer fits. Meanwhile, the original trope definition was kinda/sorta split into PutThemAllOutOfMyMisery, but some important elements of the original trope got lost along the way. All in all, I think it made more of a mess than it solved.
But in short: WoobieDestroyerOfWorlds now covers exactly what you\\\'re describing. Despite the name, it\\\'s meant to encompass all levels of destruction stemming from villainous woobiedom.
