Why did he write this?

You know how many shitty third world lives we'll have to live through

Yeah constant reincarnation is truly awful. Imagine all the times you'll be abused as a child, all the times you'll die horrifically in wars, all the times you'll be involved in terrifying situations like plane crashes or kidnappings. The 1/100 times I'll be wealthy and carefree or even the times I just lead a normal NPC life are not worth the hundreds of thousands of times I'll have to deal with the worst sufferings imaginable that I (we) will also have to go through over and over again

>hundreds of thousands of times I'll have to deal with the worst sufferings imaginable
Potentially infinite times, actually. The short story seems to suggest that you always reincarnate as other humans, but in a worse scenario you might also have to deal with being plants (not so bad), animals (bad), fungi (not so bad), and aliens (?) also

The point is to also live through all the times you'll abuse a child, all the times you killed in war, all the times you'll do horrific things to people, like crash planes and kidnap them.
It's not about having the most fun, it's about having every single perspective.

Seems terrible from this side of the carpet, but in the celestial realm we could have as much time to reflect and relax as we need before the itch to be born again returns. Living lives is just something we do again and again forever. Don't worry.
