This strategy would confer on transhumans and posthumans a readily
recognizeable evolutionary advantage.
It could be sold as a solution to increasing the quality of life while
tying up fewer resources.
The almost total allocation of industrial and agricultural activity
to maintaining human existance ,
and military resources to territorialism is no longer acceptable.
It has left the globe with an unstable food supply situation; which is a
greater threat to the extinction
of modern humanity than nuclear or bio threats.
When food reserves rely on a functioning global energy transfer
network and in reality
would become depleted in months if a broad based global crisis occurred
, society has
puts itself at great exposure for pre-singularity extinction.
A low maintainace human requiring far less for clothes , housing, and
food inputs is complementary to justification for allocation of
resouces towards life extension for these bio-types.
