One child less means halving population after every generation.
Only if you assume the average is two children per couple and a replacement reproduction rate, which doesn't fit the reality I know. We have a huge population in the billions precisely because that's not what is going on.
If we drop to something below exponential growth rates, this is not a tragedy.
