A nit with this: This isn't quite accurate. Those plans may not take over
the society of all persons, but the plans of those with few progeny can
take over sub-societies. If, as I suspect, posthumanity will diverge both
in space as well as in form, even those who don't reproduce can form
cultures independent of most of posthumanity. Their plans would only be
selected out if you assume that only one culture/set of ideas will exist. I
see no reason to believe this.
