'Super-Earths' in the billions

[scotpens]

. . . The reason that doesn't happen is because replacement growth doesn't contribute to height, and a lack of replacement growth therefore doesn't result in a reduction of height (which is why old people don't shrink).

Who says people can’t shrink?

Actually, old people do shrink, but for various other reasons.

Shouldn't we fear the super-men from super-Earths would easily be able to conquer our Earth?

I mean, it would make more sense to conquer worlds like theirs, but then we all know from sci-fi that what alien men really want is EARTH WOMEN.

I get what you're trying to say, but you chose a very poor way of expressing it that made it hard for me to understand what you were talking about because it involved lecturing me on something I already knew was nonsense. All your harping on the insanely obvious fact that people don't shrink got in the way of the part of your explanation that was actually useful.

Fine have it your way.
