How about a control function on human population? (For nature as a system, it might as well count as a benefit)

The question was "is there anything good about mosquitos?" and your response is "control ... human population". Which I hope you know happens through pain and suffering of the affected individual and those around them. This doesn't seem like an acceptable price to pay, even if you think decreasing the population is a good thing.

Would you want to revise your opinion?
