Concern about the inevitable suffering and death of potential people is the foundation of antinatalism., not included (or perhaps not included under its name) in your survey. I am not here arguing for or against antinatalism, but antinatalism belongs front and center in any survey of the inevitable suffering and death of potential people. Antinatalism is the claim it is morally wrong to bring new life into being because that new life will inevitably suffer and die.
