For humans, it isn't really. We wouldn't be much affected if they disappeared. But for whales as a species it is a big thing, since they breed very slowly. Doesn't take much killing before the overall numbers start to drop. And personally, I'd be sad to see them go. And I find the habit of killing long-lived, intelligent and social creatures quite questionable.
There is no way without killing it.

No, it is not possible to obtain whale oil from whales without killing them. Whale oil is typically extracted from the blubber of whales after they have been killed for that purpose. Efforts are being made to promote sustainable alternatives to whale oil.
i believe whale killing began around 1873

No, they were originally called whale killers, as they were obseved by fishermen killing many other whale species. Over the course of many years, it has changed to killer whale. Another name for the killer whale is "Orca".
