That sounds about right. The second one has unproven assertions however.

There are already things other than misery that seem to be able to reduce population growth, or even halt/shrink it in some cases. Look at the birth rates of modern "western" societies. Many of them have fallen below replacement levels.

That might not sustain itself.
