I imagined the 'fantastic scenario' as being one in which "The good guys implement deliberate X-risk reduction efforts to stave off non-AI X-risks". I meant to cite "a global nanotech immune system, cheap and rigorous biotech tests and safeguards, an asteroid defense system, nuclear safeguards" as examples of "X-risk reduction efforts" in order to fill out the category, regardless of the individual relevance of any of the examples. Anyway, it's confusing, and I should remove it.
Yeah, I think I want a picture of what the world looks like where the probability of success was as high as possible, and then we succeeded. I think the central requirements of successful outcomes are far fewer, and less helpful for figuring out where to go.
