Should we upgrade photosynthesis and grow supercrops?

9. Can't argue too much with that

Kill someone, and get away with it, that's ok. You earned freedom by not getting caught. Kill someone, but get caught, that's ok too, because whoever built the prison earned the right to make the rules and put you in prison if that prison is still standing.

We're the only species that thinks twice about whatever it that we call killing. Whether it's within our species, or outside of it. To the vast majority of life, killing is just evolution. It's just surviving. Then again, if humanity exterminates Ebola one day, that's just evolution. Same thing if it kills all of us at some point, in some way. Just using Ebola for the sake of argument. It can be anything though.

Literally anything that happens is ok, it just gets clouded by our particular moral judgments. At least these days, since as you point out, nobody really gave a damn back in the day, for various reasons. Of course, if people have moral judgments today, that's ok, whatever those may be. How could a moral argument not exist if they do exist?

I like it. What you're saying is reality. It's completely messy. Even the words that we're using to describe what you're talking about don't do it justice. These are just words that we made up and defined. How much more subjective can you get than that? Which I guess is ok, even if it's limiting.
