I'm dubious about your point #9 due to Fisher's principal.

With central planning, more women than men makes sense, and this system has central planning. Everyone isn't just trying to maximize IGF

Agreed, however, Eliezer's phrasing of #9 made it sound like he was referring to individual incentive.

Central planning is pushing their goals into everyone's individual incentive. Humans aren't IGF maximizers, and will respond to financial incentives.
