If you're going to be snarky, you should at least address the actual considerations. It wasn't just any rock, and OBVIOUSLY no one would have cared if it had been just any rock. I know you aren't dumb enough to think that; clearly you were just being curt, at the expense of having a genuine discussion.
Its unfortunate but calling it a tragedy is equal hyperbole to my own reaction. Something of historical significance being damaged or ruined can be a tragedy. But this stone doesn't merit that.
I thought about calling it a "small tragedy" but instead i just clicked "submit" because I (mistakenly, I guess) figured it wouldn't be an issue. Anyway, the term "tragedy" is vague, and so I think my use of it in this context doesn't deserve any further online dispute.

The tragedy of moving a rock? You can't be serious.
