Which doesn't really work as a concept when there are things so terrible that no amount of money can compensate. What price would you put on human extinction?

Well yeah, but surely some compensation is better than the current status quo of nothing at all. > What price would you put on human extinction? Well, if we want to get hyper-capitalist about it: whatever the resulting opportunity cost is from those humans no longer being able to produce value. Of course, seeing as how humans can produce other humans who then produce value and yet more humans and so on in perpetuity, that opportunity cost rather quickly approaches infinity.
