What I am interested in is whether making it easier for programmers to wield correct knowledge of software engineering increases the probability of UFAI. (In other words, maybe the incorrect textbooks and such that Morendil has been bringing to our attention are doing the world a favor.)

You can also see FAI as the ultimate challenge in requirements specification. :)

Maybe antibiotics and vaccinations are also increasing the probability of UFAI by allowing more humans to exist.
