Is it?
I'm 30 and (so far) childless. If we have children, my wife and I will have 1 or 2 kids. 'Maximizing the number of humans' is not a goal of ours.
Most industrialized nations are reproducing at or below replacement levels and global population will probably level off by the end of this century.

And most third-world countries have higher birth rates than replacement levels. I'm not sure what kind of conclusion can be taken from a situation where there are increasingly more uneducated people with increasingly better technologies.. But it doesn't sound good.
