Maybe just point to the Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy entry and a few standard sources on this? This has been covered very heavily by philosophers, if not ad nauseam.

Will add a link. But I haven't yet seen my particular angle of attack on the repugnant conclusion, and it isn't in the Stanford Encyclopaedia. The existence/non-existence seems to have more study, though.
