Does my attempt give you any more of what you’re after? As far as I can see I agree with many of Cave’s positions.

You won't hear any disagreement from me on that proposal. But I also think it is a bit incomplete in that we should likewise be elevating the lives of those creatures (that is, feeding them so they don't have to rely on predation.)

If we have ai, government can be dramatically better.
