That's based off of Herid Fel's idea about clearing the rubble before building. I think the DO wants the seals broken, but he may realize that Rand will break them himself, so they're not a priority for the DO or Moridin. Moridin at the Forsaken meeting in KoD didn't seem to think the seals were very urgent.
whether the Seals are holding the Bore open or preventing a new Seal from being placed, I don't think the DO wants the Seals broken. I can't think of any evidence that indicates that the remaining Seals must be broken for the DO to win.
My view on this has been that the DO had to exert strength/energy to hold the Bore open during the War of Power. That is to say that the pattern would heal itself if left alone. Now, with most of the Seals broken, the DO can influence the world without holding open the Bore. The DO ordered the remaining Seals captured to prevent Rand from breaking them. If the Bore can't be repaired while the remnants of the old Seal are there, why break the Seals at all?

I don't think they're holding the bore open so much as preventing a better patch from being made.

Yeah, but he seems to be constantly hurling his power throughout KoD
