Some of the problems you highlight are real problems for sure. I cannot expand any further, there are books on the subject, but i will add 2 more points.

>That's opposite to P2P. We don't want bigger torrent seeders, we want more torrent seeders.

We can have both kinds of seeders. More seeders and better ones as well. These properties are not mutually exclusive.

>Anyone who's been paying attention to the climate change discussion in the past 50 years should understand that "Increase of production" is definitely the last thing we want.

Believe it or not, production of food, housing, transportation will increase exponentially, and follow the familiar S curve trajectory. Human population will increase exponentially, i forecast one trillion people by the end of the century (2.100), one quadrillion by the end of 2.200 and so on.

The environment and earth will be thriving as well because new wealth will be created out of thin air. We will not need as many resources to create wealth, like we do today. Rare earth minerals, petroleum and more will not be necessary in the future to create wealth.
