The towers are complelty unrelated to eleiminating man becuase all of the towers, excpet Adementine are already deactivated, and taking out the towers would only cause Alduin to re-appear, eat Mundus, and cause another Kalpa. It wouldn't end men, mer, or anything, but the current Kalpa.

Because if you remember, last time fully mortals tried to deactivate a tower (silly, Redguards, you don't use this new lerned attack on Orichalcum Tower!), the entire continent of Yokuda submerged. Actually, the sinking of Yokuda has not been confirmed to have happened because of any one thing. Some theories point to it being a natural phenomenon, while others point to it being caused by a rouge group of sword-singers. The tower itself has never been implicated in causing Yokuda's destruction, ever.

Furthermore, Orchalic tower has never been confirmed to be in Yokuda in the first place, that is speculation.
