Above poster never said anything about freezing the population. Instead, they talked about removing the _requirement_ for unsustainable growth. Heck, even if we're 10 generations away from some "exactly correct number of humans", that still doesn't mean infinite growth is economically sustainable. Kicking that can on that does no good for our descendants. And even if infinite growth IS sustainable, that doesn't mean that it's a good idea to have a system that requires it. There will be bumps and variations - one generation shouldn't suffer because next generation (be it by choice, environment, or war) has fewer members.
