No, it isn’t. It was a casual statement of curiosity about the future.
There are always things we don’t know when newish discoveries go into common use that we learn over the first few decades of really widespread use.
It seems like you’re projecting a whole lot of meaning onto a casual comment when there was really not much there.

Well, the answer to your curiosity is there. No need for further wondering, same as you don’t need to wonder wheter the sun will rise tomorrow. We know.
But you insist on wondering even though the knowledge is already there.
So why are you still claiming that it’s a “casual statement of curiosity about the future”, when the result is already there?
The terminology you use and the insistence of ignoring factual knowledge that we have claiming “you are just wondering” or “just curious” or “just asking questions” is identical to the tactics used by conspiracy theorists and antivaxxers.
If you are persistently acting like a conspiracy theorist and antivaxxer, why are you surprised you are treated like one?

People wonder about the long range effects of things because we can’t know them until a long time has passed. Like when the internet first became available in homes, we all had no idea that it would change society and even human psychology in the ways that it has. Do you never read about something that’s fairly new and think, “I wonder how that’s going to play out”? There’s not currently any answer as to what new information will be revealed or what new understanding will be gained over decades to come. Only time will show us that.

It’s like pidgeon chess, isn’t it?
Things are clear and well-studied, but people like you think that ignorance is a virtue and that something that you don’t know can’t be known by anyone else.
