Assuming this is going to happen - the war is necessary, although not mentioned in the post.
Without the war the following are in contradiction:
people living in overcrowded flats
depopulation
It’s not possible without a massive decrease of the flats available.
either people live in the overcrowded flats (meaning: the population figures goes up), or:
depopulation happens because of massive die-offs (meaning: there is plenty of flats available / empty), or:
the flats get destroyed faster than the population size leading to overcrowding of flats that are still left.
The last option matches the scenario in the article but it means: massive wars on all the continents … or still peace but most of the flats bought by the corporations becoming empty / inhabited.
So you either have a war or you live in building of 10 flats in the only 1 flat being rented to 10 people.
