Obviously everyone "wants" limitless abundance, however I don't think I would choose it.
Far greater social problems would be created in a limitless abundance world. The acquisition of goods that happens in a reasonable scarcity world provides a common shared purpose for most humans. It centers people and gives them goals and things to work towards.
We are far too secular, with far too little spiritual centering to survive in limitless abundance. Excess and sloth would breed more and more extreme excess that would end like the Calhoun Mouse Utopia.
Anyway, the universe is a proof-of-work structure.
we already have excess and sloth today!
