Uhh aliens would be inevitably universally omnicidal just in case some other aliens are omnicidal, shut up nerd

    A bee colony that learned calculus isn’t going to be worrying about the limits of late-stage capitalism on its growth, for example.

    You seem to be missing my point that if something can evolve to learn calculus it is no longer incomprehensible and it has to evolve specifically to be able to do that shrinking the box even more.

    Edit: Intelligence of that level has only been seen once in the entire lifespan of this planet of billions of species of every variety, suggesting that our type of intelligence is a very niche trait shrinking that box even more.

        Yea, it seems our only disagreement right now is how much variation rather then the aliens being incomprehensible which is too subjective even if you were to use the earth as an example.
