> a ton of people to be unable to continue living in those areas

That sounds like more of a solution than a problem: those places are going to burn, so it's better that people stop living there.

Ironically, if they just let them naturally burn in the first place there wouldn't be even a fraction of damage caused by these modern wildfires.

IIRC it's a funding problem - controlled burns require a ton of manpower to control, and the longer since the last burn, the harder it is to control.
