Reply to comment by AccomplishedBerry625 in What's your estimation for the minimum size of global population required for preserving modern civilization with advanced technology and medicine, and even progressing further? by Evgeneey

economy of scale comes into the modern sustaining the high tech and if you chop that out they are no longer viable

likewise with enough scale cuts basics start failing as well
