> It's not necessarily only a value judgement if it turns out being less social is actually less healthy for everyone.

It would still be a value judgement in that case. There's the value of people having the choice to do less healthy things (as long as they're not hurting other people in doing so), versus preventing people from doing less healthy things.

Historically saying, people doing less healthy things got culled out of the evolution of the humanity and society. Today we have "solutions" to alleviate these consequences of the less healthy hings - AI friends, therapy, you name it. So humanity can obviously go on with those less healthy things, with consequences which I cannot predict.

Fair, thank you for calling attention to that.
