Do you think factory-farmed-chicken-lives are worth living? That is, if you could create infinitely many of them at no material cost would you do so? Please don’t consider the economic value of chickens; suppose this marginal chicken has no practical use whatsoever. Further, it’s not an option to create them and then transport them to chicken-rescue pleasure-domes.
Sorry about the grammatical ambiguity. “No” means you’d rather the chicken never existed, not that you’d rather the universe never existed. I just mean roughly that you prefer the chicken not exist.
