Who said the keepers couldn't? It was the titans themselves being misguided into thinking they couldn't kill them because ripping one out caused damage. Also we already defeated an essentially freed one considering Yogg controlled his jailers and his chains were also broken in his room. Cthun may or may not have been free hence the War of the Sands needing to seal him inside with his minions.

Wrong. The keepers were sent initially and were getting slaughtered by Yshy boy and after he was gone the others were cake.
The head is smaller than I thought
Instead of writing nonsense you could read the entire thing you quoted and that my knowledge might be a bit old and not i don't know the lore. I can't stop Blizzard from chagining it so much, but what ever the point this is of arguing, besides i only made one post regarding that topic and ddin't keep arguing it was wrong afterwards.
ooh daddy.
The Titans are much stronger than the Old Gods. For Aman'thul to kill Y'shaarj was like an man killing a flea. The problem was that the Old Gods are buried too deep in Azeroth and killing Y'shaarj wounded the planet itself and the Titans were afraid that killing them all would also kill the world soul, so they devised a plan to jail all the Old Gods, and then the Titanforged and the Keepers jailed them.
In fact, Odyn led the Titanforged and jailed all of the Old Gods. Why won't Odyn help us again i don't know since in Chronicles it's written that he is pretty much the responsible for jailing Yogg Saron.
That's from Chronicles volume 1, Chapter 2 - Primordial Azeroth."By the time the Keepers and their allies reached Yogg-Saron, their forces were greatly diminished. They found that they lacked the strength of numbers to defeat the Old God. Yogg-Saron would have destroyed the titan-forged completely if not for the heroic efforts of Odyn.
Although scarred and battered by war, Odyn summoned his waning strength and inspired the titan forged to launch a conterattack. He commanded Loken to weave a grand ilussion spell that force the C'Thraxxi to see themselves - and even Yogg-Saron - as the enemy. As the Black Empire's forces turned on one another, Odyn swooped in to cut down his confused foes. The other titan-forged followed his lead, and together they succeeded in pacifying Yogg-Saron. As they had doe with C'thun and N'zoth, the keepers buried the entity beneath the earth, locking it away in a monolithic enchanted prison."
So, the Old Gods are as powerful as the Keepers and the Void Lords must be as powerful as the Titans.
English is not my first language, feel free to point out any mistake so i can keep learning.
Also, nothing says (and Chronicles kind of says that ripping out was the cause) that killing an Old God causes any damage to Azeroth.
The probably reason why Y'shaarj left a wound behind is because the Titans literally pulled him out of the ground.
Killing them in a more conventional manner might just kill it without any lasting damage.
I think N'zoths model was his size when he first arrived on Azeroth and then just grew extra layers.
Except it didn't.
I have no idea how people interpret that from the Blizzcon interview.
They say "Have you played Cataclysm? Where the world gets messed up because of Old Gods?", and then directly references (and reveals) N'zoth, who was the reason N'zoth caused the Cataclysm.
It doesn't even make sense to say that the Old Gods caused the Cataclysm because we know exactly how and why the Cataclysm was caused ot begin with.
