So what would the consequences be of letting the core just melt and eat its way downwards? It's not as if the environment around the plant and seawaters hadn't had a hefty portion of radioactive waste already and the structural damage hadn't happened. A quick look at Wikipedia tells me that in most nuclear accidents the worst had already happened before the actual meltdown.
