That's all nice and well, Letum, and it is very theoretical and abstract and intellectual and philosophically disconnected from reality.

A massacre where 2 million get killed, still sees twice as many people killed, as one with 1 million killed. Stop philosopphy to create an altwernative universe. Use some math to deal with the one you're in. And that is a place where an event that sees 2 million killed sees twice as many people being killed than a killing that results in the killing of 1 million. I wonder what is so difficult in seeing that.

Sometimes your mindgames really seem to catapult you directly into an orbit not around just planet Earth but around all the solar system. Try to keep at least one foot on the ground.

I must say I totally and completely fail to see anything relevant in your attempt to explain what you're after. I must even say that the attempt is most absurd, and - as I already said - disconnected from reality. If at least you woudl argue quality versus quantity aspects. With that I could at least sympathize, and to some degree maybe even agree.

If i would follow your thinking, then I would need to conclude that it does not matter if in WWII 6 million people died, 6 thousand died, or 60 million died. And if 4 billion people would have died, then it would matter even less, since there wouldn't be a group of survivors from homo sapiens anyway.

Sorry, but you completely lost me. I can just roll my eyes.
