I’d argue that there’s a significant benefit to increasing the proportion of rational thinkers, which I would think would happen significantly more often with children of rationalists. Your individual child probably won’t make a difference, but other rationalists probably think like you, so you’re really making a timeless decision that produces many thousands of more-likely-rational children.
Not sure, insufficient data. At first, probably, but at some point CFAR’s capacity will stop being the limiting factor, being replaced by the low sanity waterline itself; meanwhile, the rate of rational parents producing rational children is something I’d expect to be constant.

For the amount of money a child requires couldn’t CFAR do more to spread rational thinking?
