The Superhappies could have transformed humanity and the Babyeaters without changing themselves or their way of life in the slightest, and no one would have been able to stop them.

All their “fair-mindedness” does is guarantee that I will be changed again, also against my will, the next time they encounter strangers.

The next time, it presumably wouldn’t be against your will, due to the first set of changes.
