Some statistics from one of my servers regarding Tor abuse. From 1130 abuse IPs in my http access log 4 are Tor exit nodes and from the 1905 ssh bruteforce attacker IPs 3 are Tor exit nodes. Stop operating Tor nodes would therefore reduce the abuse by basically nothing but take Tor from the people that need it.

>eh, it's still worth it

Yes it's totally worth it.

My abuse logs for the last two years have overwhelmingly been from compromised Chinese devices, and Spanish servers. Not sure why Spain is so often used, but Tor abuse cases are few and far between.
