Keeping it framed that way, do mice care that humans progress? Is it meaningful that something that "evolved" (or generically, was in some way created) from us succeeds? In particular, if there are already other advanced races in the universe, is it actually meaningful that new advanced sentience that is wholly unlike us is added to that set of races, simply because of some historical connection to us?
