Because you're arguing "too many" without being able to define "enough." The fact that the number is big doesn't mean anything here. Is 100 billion too many stars in the galaxy? > humanity itself is better off with less humans living at the same time? Humanity isn't an entity, but each of those humans is. Every single one of them a life as rich and complex and deserving as your own. What path are you suggesting for reducing that number, destroying some of that complexity and richness? This cannot be responsibly debated in the abstract; any concrete policy will result in constraining the self-determination of many of those people. How would you have it done?
