Re: 5.
Yes, genocide is a better word. By niggle, I mean that it was not truly clear to me that ALL those people are all advocating for the genocide of humanity. But certainly some are. So I meant that for me to quibble over me finding no explicit mention was "a niggle" not that the fact that some people have effectively genocidal plans is "a niggle"! Because that is NOT. And I DO believe that at at least some people have such plans.
