I mean, I don't disagree with you on that. I didn't think your first comment quite conveyed this nuance, and deflationary economies are terrible for everyone.
I don't think local economies from millennia ago are similar enough to compare to modern global economies with our current population boom. I think we could for sure have a different approach if our population was stable or decreasing.
What a wide window, but I'd like to point out that the baby boomers generation happened right around this time.
Fertility rates and total population numbers are not the same thing.
