Some of us think human extinction would ultimately be for the best, even for humans. There is no civilized future; it's exploitation, violence and horror all the way to the end. The faster the end comes the less of all that there will be. Humanity is not suited for interstellar permanence, we are defective.
Or..
That's nasty and almost outrageous. Meat shouldn't be overcooked!
I agree. I'm actually hoping for human extinction. We're a cancer on the earth. If bees went extinct, the natural world would collapse. If ants went extinct, again, the natural world would collapse. If humans went extinct? Well, not much would happen except that the natural world would achieve equilibrium again.
To live is to suffer. Study. You're almost there. The defect is intentional. Consoling the defect is enlightenment.
