This sounds like a great idea but your last line is a death sentence to it. I think it would take the apocalypse you are dismissing before the solution you are recommending could be implemented.

You'd take an apocalypse where no antibiotics work, and everybody dies, against a solution where some antibiotics work, and some people die?

Are you sure you've thought this through?

My comment was not an opinion on the proposed solution. It was an opinion on the likelihood of such a solution actually being implemented by society.
