You just looked at the current number, arbitrarily added some margin on both sides and assumed it's the "sweet spot". Congratulations, you're at the same level

Congratulations, you're at the same level of thinking as 17th, 18th and 19th centuries philosophers.
- collyw 3y agoI was thinking along those lines. No reason given for the number, pretty much pulled it out of thin air. When I was growing up we were told we would have too much population and wouldn't be able to feed ourselves. Now obesity seems like a bigger problem. Obviously infinite growth isn't possible, but where the actual number lies, I honestly have no idea.
