Claim: In order for the overall population to hit a maximum number of children, every subgroup within it must also hit a maximum number of children.
Proof: Assume the opposite, that there is a subgroup S that never hits a maximum amount of children, but the overall population has a maximum amount of children X. Since S does not hit a maximum amount of children, S at some point has more than X children. This contradicts the initial assumption. QED
- bloak 9y agoOh, that's boring. It's almost as boring as saying that the number of any countable physical thing must reach a maximum because it is bounded by the mass of the universe divided by the mass of an electron, or something equally tedious. I don't think we're gaining any insight here.
