There’s another problem that his math missed. His baby-making rate stands at one per three months. Extrapolating that for all humans puts the population’s doubling rate at EVERY THREE MONTHS! In 10 years, there will be a lot of ~3 trillion kg kids!

If every 10 billion people can make a new earth every year, I think we should be able to get on top of this.

Why does he mispronounce his surname?

Could be German. It’s not pronounced precisely like “Kyle”, but close enough, and “Keil” is the German word for “wedge”.

  1. How is size (“big”) even associated with mass (“weight”) in this relation?

  2. What is a “pounds”?

They’re making the (possibly false) assumption that density will stay the same, so size must grow with weight.

Of course, it’s equally likely that size will remain constant. It changes or it doesn’t -> 50/50 odds. Until the point it all collapses into a black hole.
