You mean our own species?
I don't think suffering is a linear property like that with life.
And I may be with Nick Lane on this one, that the likeliness of anything similar to what we got here, evolving in another planetary body, I think is quite low.
Probably multicellular.
But I understand both sides of the equation, right?
In one level, I can see that we may not have any other choice but to back up this chemistry somewhere else.

It's not about, you know, yes, let's also save Beatles and all the amazing songs, but this would be the ultimate repository of life.

see, right?
