Why magic does not break everything: individualized
A note on the video The TRUE Scale of MAGIC
Why magic may not break everything: because you cannot cut it away from individuals. Magic is more like creating a game — where creating the next version after the death of the original creator requires someone to spend a few years getting into the vibe.
Otherwise the bridge breaks when its creator dies.
Society cannot rely on mages. Maybe the last time it relied on magic for survival, almost half the population died when the new generation of mages wasn’t up to the task, because they watched too much trickle slop.
Compatible Humans
Comment to Humans will reproduce with anything.
This would be an awesome special feature for humans. Not faster, not stronger, not more intelligent, just emotionally and genetically more compatible.
My point is that humans as a society are actually very compatible. While there is Xenophobia, there are also many people with Xenophilia, and throughout the millennia humans with their very narrow genetic variability only survived because their social and emotional structures actively encouraged combining genetic material from far off tribes.
Now develop that further: technology removes the physiological requirement for compatibility, but the social and emotional structures favoring integration with foreign aliens persists.
This could finally solve the “and what are the humans?” problem for me in Science Fiction.
