“The only thing that would be necessary for them to create things prolifically would be to ensure their ability to live …” We can already do this. It’s called paying them. Your entire argument is people would make things for free as long as they could get money. Do you realize how nonsensical that sounds?
In a lot of fantasy the terms are already neutral and only denote magical specialty. Witch - magic user, with a familiar, specialized in potions Warlock - magic user, specialized in the demonic Wizard - magic user focused on pure magic
How is this opinion narcissistic? I would say the community that’s main focus is ripping of content creators while freeloading off of paying consumers are the narcissists. I pirate too but I don’t pretend it’s some noble venture.

The pumps were also destroyed, and the shaft began to fill with water. A worker named Mallory was lowered into the shaft by a rope the next day; he was overcome by fumes and reported no survivors, and no further rescue attempts were made.
Several months later, workers reached the shaft’s bottom and found that several victims had survived long enough to fashion a raft before suffocating
I will only buy a house East of my office. That way I’m driving away from sunrise and sunset.
You have to keep saying it because it’s not true. I’ve known artists who have seen their work stolen. Until then I never truly understood the hurt it causes them. I watched a normally jovial friend spiral into anger and depression. Sure, pirating some garbage Marvel movie isn’t going to impact much.
