The imagination of there being some master switch or inflection point where humans are within a hair's breadth of salvation seems hopelessly naive to me.

The strategems of a superior mind are unknowable and do not engineer scenarios where they exist in a high degree of precarity.

You can accurately describe a lack of knowledge with a high degree of confidence.

But describing a lack of knowledge is not the same as describing the properties of that which you lack knowledge of.
