We have recently developed a system that eliminates scarcity for all digital media. The results is not an ideological re-alignment but a crowbar that locks down the rules of scarcity.
At the same time we have not yet eliminated scarcity in other areas. Thus some still need digital scarcity to solve their physical scarcity. If physical scarcity in general was solved issue there would be no need to lock down digital media.
My gut tells me the probability we make it to post scarcity without a calamity (probably human manufactured) that ruins our ability to progress to post scarcity is pretty close to zero.
Now fast forward that by 10k years and what does it look like when time has worn down all those legal issues. The digital society is only two generations old at most.
