That isn't a realistic choice. If you mean imagine that 1) humanity continues on as it has without ems arriving, or 2) ems arrive as I envision, then we'd be adding trillions of ems with lives worth living onto the billions of humans who would exist anyway with a similar quality of life. That sounds good to me.
Thanks, that tells me what I wanted to know.
(FWIW, I didn't mean that last one as a choice, just a comparison of two situations happening at different times, but i don't think that raelly matters)
