Nobody would die since they wouldn‘t even exist in the first place.

And what about the negative experiences? Especially for the vast majority of poor people?

I agree that in the end the industrial revolution was a wonderful thing. But not because of the number of people.

Number of poor people has gone down thanks to industrialization - even while at the same time total population numbers have exploded.
