I’m going to back him on this (crazy right?!?). If I am arguing that “having life” is utility (which I did, by directly confronting anti-natalism before he could bring it up), he has the right to include the utility of existing in his argument.

He did not, however, actually make an argument with it. He kinda shot that one out without any real direction.

EDIT: Well that, and I came forth with a quality-over-quantity metric for life, and he completely disregarded it.
