A few noticeable differences that i'll leave for what they are, since they'll take us too far.

I do draw the line to our world as well as TG's, although it's most likely easier to find faults in how we do things in our world than how humans do it in the TG world, but I don't particularly see much of a difference between humans in both worlds. The ghouls in the fictional world are the decisive factor that changes a whole lot of issues that are more clear in our society.

I either need to find a good example in our world that could compare with a ghoul in the fictional world or I can't say much about this fictional world at all. Talking about morality & 'ought to be' concerning TG is only possible in so far that we accept that we can project our own experiences with morality, law, regulations, crime, ... on this world.

For the sake of brevity I would make the conclusion after reading your comment that ghouls fall in the same category as a 'deadly disease' such as cancer, aids,... It's those diseases explicitly that we want to eradicate out of our existence completely just like we did with all kinds of bacteria to prevent those from making us sick and making unecessary casualties. Or I could compare ghouls with human cannibals (Hannibal Lecter).

Before the creation of The Oggai, ghouls could succesfully integrate in human society without being noticed. And in that sense you're the person that highlights the dangers in that, while I would prefer highlighting the similarities ghouls have with humans. Similarities that could make them blend in as their own given that we find an alternative for their hunger & craving for their work colleagues. Now of all things i'm sure killing the threat is the easiest method of ridding yourself of something problematic, but with all the scientific displays of hybridisation & cross-breeding which are almost of the level of a miracle, you'd expect  them to have the means to figure out something to solve the main 'meaty'-issue.

I'll just be frank and throw the accusation out there. I believe science is already at a point in TG where there should be a more peaceful solution for the ghoul hunger. But humans simply don't care about 'ghoul-rights' (to put it in the most social justice warrior way I possibly can). Ghouls are and will be a nuisance to future endeavors of humanity, it'll be an extra factor that creates friction and tension, that'll have you look over your shoulders or check your surroundings regularly. Much like a mouse in the house keeps you on edge until you've catched it, preventing you from doing much else in the meantime. Humanity isn't losing, humanity has probably never lost their dominant spot in the story, but we're given the false pretense with this story following a specific individual's journey that ghouls are far more dangerous than they actually are in the bigger picture that is the entire world beyond just Tokyo. The fact that nobody cares about sending for outside help to clean house in one fell swoop, leaves me to think the events of Tokyo Ghoul are of such triviality to human world leaders that they leave it to the specific force present in the city to deal with it on their own (CCG). If that somehow isn't the case and ghouls prove to effectively be a much bigger threat than I assume, I gladly accept your pragmatic view on how the nature of both beings just asks for one to be eradicated (or domesticated in a very strict manner). Otherwise I feel like this is just more of the same asshole-nature we humans possess that drives us to look for the most profitable option where ghouls are essentially used as a tool to distract a rival nation that is getting ahead of themselves. (I know i'm laying something out here that doesn't stroke with what the story tells us, but it's just a way of saying politics & economic supremacy between factions is a bigger priority than dealing with the ghoul-problem.)
