Again, sure, but it doesn’t matter to an average person. That’s too much focus on the hypothetical future. People care about the current times. In the short term it will suck for a good chunk of people, and whether the sacrifice is worth it will depend on who you are.

People aren’t really on uproar yet, because implementations haven’t affected the job market of the masses. Afterwards? Tume will show.

Yes, people tend to focus on current times. It's an incredibly shortsighted mentality that selfishly puts oneself over tens of billions of future lives being improved. https://pessimistsarchive.org

Do you have any dependents, like parents or kids, by any chance? Imagine not being able to provide for them. Think how’d you feel in such circumstances.

Like in general I totally agree with you, but I also understand why a person would care about their loved ones and themselves first.

Yes, I have dependents, and them not dying is far more important to me than me being the one providing for them.

Eventually you draw the black ball, it is inevitable.
