Why isn’t it more ethical to produce as many children as will fit in a female’s lifespan?
Rescuing lives in the third world is cheaper than getting children, if your goal is altruism. On the other hand altruism isn’t the only reason to get children.
If your goal isn’t altruism then why ask “Why isn’t it more ethical to produce as many children as will fit in a female’s lifespan?”. Simply get as many children as you want to have.
The “and” in my reply connects two separate conditions. It is possible that your goal is altruism but you don’t value people equally. The question of whether having many children is ethical could depend on exactly what factors you use to weigh your children over strangers.

If your goal is altruism, and you value all people equally, anyway. Not many people outside of here do.
