Safer in the sense that its better to be overcautious than under? I definitely agree! I'm just saying we could do without the finger wagging. Either we commit to fostering relationships or we commit to their substitutes. I'm just saying I call their bluff.
Predicting numerical decline is easy and obvious. What is silly is predicting economic or social doom because of that population decline.
