@HiFromMichaelV asks whether all crucial considerations have convergent naive positions rather than framing-dependent ones, noting population ethics typically seems non-naive. The parent post by @jessicata argues the way to avoid "galaxy brained reasoning" is taking naive positions on all crucial considerations—anything else is galaxy braining at least a little, so one may as well keep going and strive for philosophical coherence.
