You have made incorrect assumptions. No one said anything about about
getting "all" of anything through the collision. In fact, the
Inhibitors are willing to completely destroy existing species if they
deem necessary.

 There are two scenarios I can see:
 1. Spread throughout the galaxy, and accept that there will be some losses.
 2. Don't spread, but let the 'Inhibitors' intensely manage the
collision period, shepherding Earth on a safe path.
 

Why assume that Earth would be one of the planets the Inhibitors would save?
