Breaking the Elder Wand

I know I asked this question before, but I don't remember
getting a definitive answer.

Why didn't Harry simply BREAK the Elder Wand at the
end of DH?  You can physically break a wand and
render it irreparable - Harry's wand was nearly broken
and could only be fixed by the Elder Wand.  I suppose
Hagrid's wand could have been repaired by the Elder
Wand, although, since it was completely broken, unlike
Harry's wand that still hung on by a thread, even the EW
might not have worked.  But wouldn't physically breaking
the Elder Wand have ensured that no one could use it?
