Missing sial, iron, and nickel explains Fermi paradox

The most logical explanation is that all civilizations, including ours,
destroy themselves (or are destroyed) before interstellar colonization
begins. But, despite the logic of it, I find I can't accept that. So,
I'm left befuddled, with no neat solution. I consider this one of the
great mysteries of our time, right up there with the nature of
consciousness.
I think the most logical explanation is that "interstellar colonization"
has a pretty low priority for most or even all civilizations. It just
doesn't happen. They struggle to colonize their own planet, have a short
boom period, run out of natural resources and then either go extinct or
struggle on to organize long-term modest surviving and do away with
"colonization".
