if humankind (best minds) is not able to build something better in every aspect today, we as a species are on the wrong trail and should change.

We already need to change a lot (carbon free and many other problem areas) and like the Apollo program was a challenge for engineering we could start an effort in the domains of architecture and arts (and maybe others) to build something better, spiritual etc. ...

Why not just leave the cathedral as it was and build a whole new cathedral if people really want some modern masterpiece?

There are plenty of examples of "better" modern cathedrals being built, some are even linked in this thread. But we shouldn't lose our sense of history.
