For example, with telepathy there are fewer constraints, fewer possibilities for confusion. But also you're less likely to write anything down, less likely to have books, less likely to develop language. With all it's letters, and interesting letters, and misinterpretations -- which add diversity to experience.
Similarly with liberated robot civilization seeds, we will have access to more planets, more thinking substrates, more this more that more everything really. Eventually we might even be able to video-stream subconscious memories and save them to disk! Exciting stuff!. I think anyways /.../
Interesting point of view but it's not necessary to indulge in these distortions. What if this is a dead end? Isn't the veil there to penetrate it and explore creation in greater depth? For example, with telepathy maybe we would expand our vocabulary, ways of expression, recording, service ... I prefer going to more diversity in more truth and less confusion, more quality in life.
