I would love to see a trillion humans living in the solar system. If we had a trillion humans, we would have, at any given time, 1,000 Mozarts and 1,000 Einsteins.

So if one in a billion people are an Einstein or Mozart, does that mean there are 8 Mozarts and 8 Einsteins alive in the world right now? I wonder who would make the list?

There's probably much more. Half of them only recognised in their village somewhere in the middle of South Asia, the other half too burnt out with work and continuous crises to notice they could be good at something.
