Yeah, 99.99% is a rounding error. It’s 100%.

The trouble is of course that Diamandis talks about the “World” as though this cultural artefact (seen as a whole) exists without needing the physical Earth.
Any so called improvement in the World that outstrips what is made possible by the Earth is doomed. Then there are the improvements that endanger the knife-edge balancing act. And third, the improvements that blind us to anything other than ourselves.
