Mainly because both problems can't be the true threat. It's probably either one or the other. If underpopulation is a real problem, then you probably won't have to worry about the over-consumption problem (it would actually be hillarisad for humanity if we hasten the underpopulation problem by being too aggressive on the over-consumption problem).

Either underpopulation is a real threat or trend or it isn't.
