Declaring it a heritage site sounds not smart, not like a long term solution to anything. I do think the rest of this makes a lot of sense. Recycle the thing, scrap it, over many decades. Get the humans out, boost it, make sure it'll hold together. And then let whomever wants to come off pull parts or material. This should be a lesson in space manufacturing/assembly/recycling. We could learn so much about how to work on space from this. And ideally there'd be no rush. Boost it, and wait 10 years for space industry to be more caught up, more interested & able to start work.
