This “Right to Normalcy” might demand something like Stratified Utopia. TLDR: If you want to do normal stuff then you can stay on Earth; if you want to do galaxy-brained stuff then wait until you reach the distant stars.
That seems pretty simplistic. Suppose you’re born on North Sentinel, but, despite your (unchosen and probably very forcefully inculcated) native culture, you decide you want to go off and join the, um, “galaxy brains” in the outside world. Do you have any realistic chance to do that? Applies in the other direction, too, for that matter.
OK, but then at what point are you going to measure whether somebody would “ideally” want to be “uplifted”? Are you going to take a newborn’s CEV, or an adult’s? Or somewhere in between? My guess is that insofar as you could define the CEV for a newborn at all, it would basically always be to get “uplifted”, whereas for an adult it would rarely be. The adult’s CEV would also not include having every child taken from the island.
I know you leave “ideally” undefined, and maybe it’s not CEV-like, but I don’t know what it could be like if it had to solve that problem.

Yes, I support something like uplifting, as described in other comments in this post.
