My only disagreement is where population crises come from. These are cultural and economic issues, generally, not necessary consequences of wealth building.
Not sure why you’re downvoted. These are absolutely the reasons. Unfortunately in some developed nations people are worked to death and buried under debt so they decide not to have kids, or are simply not left with a choice at all. Also, well educated societies can also see the world heading in a bad direction, economically, environmentally, and/or politically and decide to be responsible and not being a child into such a world. Unfortunately, the latter means we leave the world to an ever increasing population of idiots.
This is the exact opposite of why people are having fewer kids in areas with population crises.
People generally have fewer kids in developed nations than in developing nations because all of their children are likely to survive.
Population crises arise due to social and economic factors.

His point seems to have gone over your head.
That is the argument, yes
I’m not sure that you even disagree with me here.

Otherwise yeah you’re spot on
