I would agree with you that extinction is not assured, however, we face many existential threats simultaneously. Some world leaders seem almost eager to play with their Nuclear arsenals. The climate change denying party just got a majority of every branch of the US government. The president elect wants to Drill Baby Drill. A huge fraction of the public think that climate change is a fraud, Elon Musk is going to fix the federal budget and a bunch of nonsense about the radiation from 5G (but not older cellular networks, for some reason). Oh and then there is the rapid rate at which we are burning fossil fuel to create waste heat, crypto blocks and disruptive AI.
