Billions of intelligent civilizations at the same time as us and all using dyson spheres? You're living in what dream world? The sun is young yes, but like all stars, as it grows older it's properties will change, eventually making life on this particular planet impossible short of self-contained environments. The window of opportunity for life in a stars cycle is a short one.
