I’m curious how you’d balance this.
Let’s say someone has the “fit” aspect but they are bipolar.
Do you see that as a net negative? Or how would you balance the trade offs as they get more complicated? Is there a government team who reviews reproductive applications, and if so how would they know that these people are telling the truth about their age and their health or mental health? Cancer comes up later in life sometimes, so you could allow someone with unwanted traits to reproduce and now your system failed, unless you have an idea.
Not attacking, legit curious.
Things "out of their control" would get a pass within reason but after you have your first kid if you were a mess, show improvement before having another one.
Essentially you have to show some type of growth career wise, financially or socially to get another one.
A good analogy is the credit system in this country which is problematic but a similar system could be used to determine if you could afford to have another child.
I'm not saying this won't have its problems, even bordering on human rights violations if done poorly. But it is something we should look into as a society.
We all know someone who already has like 3 children then they have another one you're like really. You could barely take care of the other 3.
