Believe me I would if I didn't have a corpse and boat there. I may just abandon it anyway except for the fact that the spawners shouldn't come back so it might be a lot easier now when I try again.

But yeah while my other trips into the swamp were dangerous that was the first time I ever felt like it was that difficult. I wonder if it was because it was a shore and water caused the spawners to be a lot closer than they normally would or something.

It should also be noted that I am running the game without mods at the moment, but when I first started the world seed it was with a couple of mods. That could have messed with things too though I was under the impression that the area wouldn't fully generate until I was nearby so that would still be unmodded if true.
