CO2’s share of the greenhouse effect is pretty significant (about 20% afaik), and the other gases wouldn’t just fill the gap. So it would get quite a bit colder.
AFAIK without any greenhouse gasses the temperature would be about -18 °C so 20% of about 45 is 9° C which is a drop from +25 to about +16 which is quite cold but not exactly humanity ending cold, right?
Still makes the world better, just not for humans ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Only if you like cold barren rock, there’s plenty of those already - isn’t it nice to have an interesting one with lots of stuff happening?
I assume that the other greenhouse gasses would still be plenty good at their job. Why do you assume that the drop would be catastrophic?

Apparently it’s a bit more complicated than that.
