No, I never looked into it, it didn’t seem relevant for interventions I was examining. I’m unsure for what WAW interventions it would be relevant. Looking at my list, the only one where it’s very relevant seems to be “Eradicate or reduce populations of invasive species that suffer a lot (e.g., have very many offspring) or otherwise create a lot of suffering (e.g., parasites like screwworms).” But even then, species longevity seems to depend a lot on what the future of humanity (or TAI) will look like and no one knows the answer to that. We are currently causing a mass extinction event and no one knows how long it will last.
