The number of people resulting from aggregate individual choices about reproduction is, by definition, neither "too many" nor "too few".

10,000 lemmings can't be wrong, hmmm?

You can worship at the idol of individualism all you want, but it won't change the mathematical fact that stable population numbers require an average of 2.1-2.2 children per woman.

Sustained fertility rates below that amount to a culture or nation voting for its own suicide.
