There are only so many people, so the growth rate can't stay exponential forever. Eventually it must look like an S-curve.

Right. An S-curve starts out looking exponential. Then begins looking rather linear in the vicinity of the inflection point. And later bends over. If you are in the midst of it then it might be hard to predict the shape of the curve.
