Good summary.

and the return of Christ is identified with the Roman army destroying Jerusalem.

This is probably what some believe, but it's kind of a stretch, yes?

If this is how Revelation should be read, I'll make a motion to cut it from Scripture, because it obviously is irrelevant dead history that has no bearing on any of us. So, let's stop arguing about Revelation, and simply dump it from Scripture....(If these folks are correct.)

Well, using that logic, let's just cut out the Song of Solomon as well. After all, it is a book about the marital relationship, and not everybody is married. Maybe we should have a singles Bible and a Marrieds Bible.

Seriously though, much is to be learned by us in Revelation. For example, the glory of God in Heaven (for that reason alone the book is one of my favorites), that Good Wins, that God knows His own, that as Christians we must perservere, that there will be a time when there will be no more chances to come to God, need I go on ??

Good point. Let's do the same for Genesis, Exodus, heck, most of the Old Testament....and some of the New.... </sarcasm; meant kindly>
