Was it necessary for the Kais to let Gohan's energy be drained for Buu?


I'm confused as to why Supreme Kai paralyzed Gohan for his energy to be
drained.

Couldn't they have just eliminated Babidi so that Buu wouldn't be resurrected?




If I remember correctly the reason was because the Kai didn't know where
Babidi was hiding. He used Gohan as bait, and then was able to follow Babidi's
henchman back to the wizard's ship. If he hadn't done that, who knows how the
story would have unfolded from there.

Also, it wasn't just Gohan's energy that restored Majin Buu, but also energy
taken from the fights within Babidi's ship.

Knowing the characters of the Saiyan Z-fighters, they wouldn't have stopped
Buu from resurrecting anyway. They would just want to fight him.
