I was thinking about what was meant by 4 to 6% lost forever, it does not even say it will be people lost forever, forever is extends way past a human life time. People die every day and we don't frame it as being "lost forever". That being said, what else could be referenced as "lost forever"? Livable land? Technology? Knowledge? I am not saying that I am right, I am just saying "lost forever" seems incorrect when talking about people dying. And just like that another thought on this. A blood line or generations of a future blood line could be considered as "lost forever" if all the current members of the entire family died and did not produce offspring to carry on the blood line.
