Until you genetically engineer all humans to waste calories, crops start failing due to climate change and soil depletion, and humanity dies because of this.
Efficiency might not be good now, but looking at the longer timeline, I don't think we should reasonably assume that the abundance will last. Actually with how things are going right now, I would assume abundance to end in my lifetime.
