I think the idea is that you don’t really have a true ecosystem at that point. The idea basically contemplates turning the entire biosphere into something more like a managed garden than a wild space. Which is one of the reasons I brought up being nowhere near the technology required among other things, because to give the idea more than idle speculation, you’d essentially have to be able to artificially run the whole planet’s life support system without requiring a functional ecology to do it for you.
