OP probably also thought about other societies involved, like the Indonesians, who did not really benefit, quite the opposite, and with far more people.
Or OP might have been considering the theory that "Fascism is Colonialism turned inward" and the impacts of that that the Dutch themselves later felt.
But then who gets priority here? The Netherlands or Indonesia? And it can easily be debated Indonesia as we know it would not exist without the VOC...
