That's the joke. The whole paper is a "Modest Proposal" style satire.
It's designed to tear down modal realism by taking it to the most absurd extreme. I also detected hints of playing on the Ontological Argument for the existence of God.
Thanks for that explanation of the paper. Is acausal trade supposed to rely on modal realism, or are they distinct?
