Agree that these are important and unresolved crucial considerations.
I guess a “meta” consideration here is to what extent things that hold in our world hold in a “human-friendly” post-AGI world. I’m pessimistic on resolving this, because given that there is absolutely no track record, we should be very uncertain on our answer to that question. We’ll have to wait and see (if we can see), or just have different factions taking different bets: there could be alt protein groups focusing on preventing further bans, and alt protein group building their ToC on the assumption that bans will not matter in a post-AGI world.
