In demographics, the term world population is often used to refer to the total number of humans currently living, and was estimated to have exceeded 8 billion as of 15 November 2022, which of course is tomorrow.

I suspect we have no idea of the total population of the planet. I am not even certain that the medical hegemony knows for sure.
The US Census is admittedly skewed for political, redistricting reasons. Discrete populations are all eligible for one or another *benefit*, so the higher the number, the higher the appropriation.
IDK anything about census-taking in other countries, but factoring in the lockstep behavior we have witnessed, I have no trust any country counts accurately.
This is a soft-kill operation. Countless individuals will not be conceived or born and we won’t even know a rate of decline for another several years.
Have to admit that I really hadn't thought along that line of reasoning. Thanks for sharing. I would think by now I would know to question their stated numbers. Especially since they are wrong on just about everything else when they communicate their wisdom upon the unwashed masses. I must be getting old & senile. 😋
