An attractive position IMHO. (And it comes with precedent.)
In theology, apokatastasis (Greek: ἀποκατάστασις, romanized: apokatástasis, also spelled apocatastasis) is the restoration of creation to a condition of perfection. In Christianity, the term refers to a form of Christian universalism, often associated with Origen, that includes the ultimate salvation of everyone, including the damned and the Devil. The New Testament (Acts 3:21), speaks of the "apokatastasis of all things". The dogmatic status of apokatastasis is disputed, and some orthodox fathers such as Gregory of Nyssa taught apokatastasis and were never condemned. Origen was condemned as a heretic at the Synod of Constantinople of 543 However, it is disputed whether the condemnation was about apokatastasis. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apokatastasis

The story that evil entered the world only with the first human wrongdoing is surprisingly popular; dinosaurs dying horrible deaths from the sorts of cancers that kill children today puts a fair bit of pressure on that view

The ancient diseases that plagued the dinosaurs

Millions of years later, the bonebed preserved after this mass death event helped provide important evidence that these dinosaurs moved in enormous herds. But the diagnosis of this particular dinosaur's osteosarcoma – a rare, malignant bone cancer more commonly found in children and diagnosed in some 25,000 people per year worldwide – only came in 2020. It was the first time a malignant cancer had ever been diagnosed in a dinosaur, and it required a multidisciplinary team of scientists to confirm the case.
