I meant "some people would have to live with a lower food supply in the short term but food production will be strongly incentivized in the long term." Unfortunately, now that I think about it, "let's kill arbitrary group #27" might actually look more attractive in that situation.
If production levels of food can still be increased at a linear cost then we haven't come anywhere close to "population too high".
I agree, and that's why "let's kill people" actually does make more sense in that situation. My original "market prices" argument was bad.
