Once you accept a standard it's hard to go back...

and perhaps naturally and via man-made design we're finding there is no way back exactly and have to accept loss / degradation as reflection of how we got here ungracefully / leveraging brute-force and without consent.

But also asking me which restore point to go back to and load up I wouldn't know what else I would do... I think actually from now it's more than doable if you can accept this hard truth...

------------------------------
Other examples / representatives of TOUGH decisions that you must make or find a way to convert for the best:

1. Cutting Trees (some are old or beetles get to them from dry weather / unhealthy trees)

2. Killing cats or dogs (overgrowth / infestation / management with love but accepting can't be 5000 cats same as everything living or inanimate)

I think the #cats or #dogs case is interesting as I like cats and dogs and why to kill (cull) them if really too many and everyone has 2 already! I think emotionally THIS IS ALL *more about the how* (like putting to sleep is ok with pill) so not the grandmas in the past who were twisting necks in the past to avoid them growing up and not being fed.

Summary: So like the trees or over-running of animals there is a place for management... with love... detail and long-run (without it being about fascism or intolerance for diversity)

Kind of like pruning or making sure existing part of tree (or planet) keeps quality not quantity.

Wow quite a profound border / yin-yang of life/death all being one thing - one planet in our case,
