Evolution.
The human species has only existed as such for ~100,000 years. Almost all human societies have failed.
We should spread knowledge far and wide for the same reason adaptive mutations spread through a population: shit happens.
Rocks fall out of the sky.
The Earth is jelly with a thin "crust" of congealed goo on top. So-called "solid ground" is thinner relatively than the paint on a globe. It shakes.
(As a kid I lived through Loma Prieta[1], I've seen the earth roll like Santa's belly. We are small!)
We should go through life like "an old man crossing a river in winter", and things both precious and free, like knowledge, should be the treasure of every person, no matter how poor or weak, for tomorrow they may be all that's left.

That's why Wendy, that's why.
