I haven't read the book yet but assuming that harm would be caused to someone by not giving him life because he could have enjoyed a pleasant life, the harm of death cannot be avoided. Therefore, to say that harm would be caused by not giving him life is not correct, or at least not entirely.
>And so I make the same claim in the opposite direction - compared to being born and feeling pleasure, it's worse to not be born.
The problem is also that even if it is not harmful to you, you're existence it's inevitably harmful to others.
