It's not the number of kids. It's the quality of kids.So, in theory, if there were only one single Western child but he was the most well-behaved, intelligent and cultured individual ever he would be more than a match for one billion Islamic kids and the future would belong to him?
Or is there actually a quantitative aspect to this after all?

Yes there is only one Western child. How could I have been so foolish

Traditionally, it's been considered prudent to require two people to turn the keys, on the theory that they won't both develop odd theories about their precious bodily fluids.
However, the systems could be refitted to be operable single-handed.

Still failing to keep up at least replacement rates is an eventual losing matter.
