Good point, thank you—I’ve had a re-read of the conclusion and replaced the sentence with “Due to this, he concludes that climate change is still an important LT area—though not as important as some other global catastrophic risks (eg. biorisk), which outsize on both neglectedness and scale.”
Originally I think I’d mistaken his position a bit based on this sentence: “Overall, because other global catastrophic risks are so much more neglected than climate change, I think they are more pressing to work on, on the margin.” (and in addition I hadn’t used the clearest phrasing) But the wider conclusion fits the new sentence better.
