Your comment reminds me of those internet atheists that are so afraid of being religious that they refuse to imagine how much better the world could be.
I do imagine how much better the world could be. I actually do want MIRI to succeed. Though currently I have low confidence in their future success, so I don’t feel “bliss” (if that’s the right word.)
BTW I’m actually slightly agnostic because of the simulation argument.
That’s nice.

Enthusiasm? Excitement? Hope?
Yep. I don’t take it too seriously, but its at least coherent to imagine beings outside the universe who could reach in and poke at us.
