I don't know how you're coming up with this hostile reading. My own family's immigration experience involved trying really hard to assimilate and leave the old world identity behind. That certainly resulted in some harmful side effects. Seeking a balanced approach has merits.

pragmatically, it's amazing that we have a pretty good historical track record of that usually being the case (in the last 200ish years of American immigration history anyway). should we assume that will always be the case though?

I say no. Population growth increases bureaucracy, which decreases
#SkinInTheGame, which increases fragility, which increases cumulative probability of collapse. -
probably correct but opens up an even harder pragmatic issue: how do you make these decisions? that's the reason there's controversy. if we had a Harry Potter sorting hat there would be no problem.

I'm talking about individual voluntary acts of relocation here, not a forcible conquest. The scenaria are not comparable.

I'm pretty sure being a conqueror is voluntary. Was Cortes just a friendly immigrant to Mexico or was he coerced into conquest?
