I deliberately refrained from making judgements as to the harm or otherwise of our actions. To do that, I would have to define concepts such as better, less destructive and I don't think my brain is quite up to that at present.
Whenever this topic comes up, I am reminded of the scf-fi short story where in the far future a classroom of intelligent cockroaches are being tutored on the extinction of the mammels and how insects came to be the dominant lifeform.
