Quality vs Quantity
A thought experiment: Assume that we have some metric of human quality — whatever you desire, be it IQ, kindness, creativity, or some more nebulous construction of what you think makes people “good”. If there was some method which would kill off half of humanity, but double this quantity value in all of the survivors, would it be worth it? What if it were 30% dead and the survivor quality sextupled? Is there any point were this tradeoff starts becoming worth it/not worth it?
(Personally, I’d be okay with 99% gone for epsilon increase, but that’s probably just the exhausted frustration talking).
