It's interesting until the point where it says to trust aliens coming to take us away. If there is one thing I have learned in life, it is that everyone and everything is trying to dupe us for their own benefit. Trust is what got us into this vaccine mess. Any trust given must be rigorously earned.

For instance, what if there is a galactic law that requires informed consent before an alien race can take a less evolved borderline sentient species from their world? I used to think any race that survived to the point of interstellar travel had to be a benevolent species, but I've shed that misconception.

It would take a lot more trust building for me to get on an alien ship that showed up and said, "all aboard!".
