Do not forget, he has his own goal and everything is viewed through that lens. He has said this himself. If he says more people is better, it means better in terms of getting him to living on Mars. More people is neither better nor worse, considering we the presently living individuals. There is no way to know if ‘more people’ is better, without a thorough objective examination of each of those people and their individual impact - except they don’t yet exist. Believing you can predict a future depending on billions of impactful yet entirely unknown variables is nonsense for shallow ‘pragmatic’ thinkers, not deep objective thinkers.
