Interesting argument. Reminds me of "why do people buy real estate on the coast while believing climate change will devastate the coasts?"

There's probably a novel metric that can be defined in there somewhere. Like "epigenetic availability."

If availability > n, then culture = transhumanistic

It's sort of like the point of escape velocity.

Yeah, these are good points and I thought about the fact that the market can stay irrational...

On the first post, I would buy real estate on the coast myself....
