I get the impression that we may decline to submit to Azathoth's breeding ultimatum for somewhat different reasons.
That may be, but my analogy is supposed to be irrelevant to that: I'm just hypothesising that we value our own existence at 1000 times the utility of not breeding. (Which is not true for me, personally, but I pretend for purposes of the argument.)
PS: I edited my previous post while you were writing your response, which may or may not make a difference.
