DataPacRat’s comment together with your observation strike me as the most interesting thing I’ve seen in an open thread in a while. I’m not convinced that the idea is in any sense correct or even a good idea but the originality is striking. It is easy to come up with obviously wrong ideas that are original, but coming up with an original (I think) idea that is that plausible is more impressive, and your observation makes it more striking.
Consistent with why children care so little about their future.

This echoes my thoughts.
