I'm not sure "false modesty" applies, at least given my views about the degree to which the FAI case has been made.
For my own idea of "good case made," anyway, I'd say the "malaria nets near-optimally connected to astronomical benefits" case is close to 0% of the way to "good case made," and the "FAI research near-optimally connected to astronomical benefits" case is more like 10% of the way to "good case made."
