I would disagree with the phrasing you use regarding ‘human terminal values.’ Now, I don’t disagree that evolution optimized humans according to those criteria, but I am not evolution, and evolution’s values are not my values. I would expect that only a tiny fraction of humans would say that evolution’s values should be our values(I’d like to say ‘none,’ but radical neo-darwinians might exist). Now, if you were just saying that those are the values of the optimization process that produced humanity, I agree, but that was not what I interpreted you as saying.
