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.
