In response to your claim that “Humans are unaccustomed to environmental abundance” I said that the world is abundant, and always has been.
The industrial revolution is proof that the world is abundant, and it has always been more abundant than anyone before the industrial revolution ever realized.
Humans are not conditioned to abundance of finished products and commodities, because they evolved in a world of abundant and useless natural resources before the inception of technology, modern automation of labor etc..
