Had to stop reading when the OP mentioned "climate pessimists" especially after the last few years of events we've had. We're barreling towards 3C with very little to no mitigation in sight. Today's "well it isn't as bad as we predicted 10 years ago" (it's actually worse) was yesterday's "well fine but humans aren't impacting the climate" and before that was "the climate isn't changing," and I don't know if this author falls into that umbrella, but it did not make me interested to read more.
