I agree for the most part with what you are saying, however there are 2 reasons I can't agree 100%.

1 survival of the human species requires that we inhabit more planets. Right now we are a giant Astroid impact away from being wiped out.

Even certain natural disasters right here on Earth could have drastic impacts on our ability to survive.

2 population.. even if we do everything possible to take care of this planet, we would have to have strict population control. That in itself would cause a lot of social issues. The better solution is to spread the population across other planets.
