They're holding the line, allowing newer generations to survive and maybe prosper even with Salem around. That is worth something. Not really, since a cynical interpretation is just putting off dealing with Salem to the next generation, basically saying its not their problem.

So it isn't worth something if the enemy they're fighting can't be stopped or contained.

Personally, since this is anime based, I know they'll find a way to end it. But realistically, people like Ruby and Maria are the minority, while people like Weiss, Blake, Yang, Jaune, Nora, Ren, Qrow, and Oscar are the majority.
