If the beings in another iteration are sufficiently different from
humanity that they could not be called human, then I suppose different
rules would apply just as they do for in our world for whales and angels.
Perhaps in some iteration humanity is unfallen and innocent. In others,
they are wise as gods but lacking any self-consciousness. Once you get
to that point, the bets are off.
(Not that I suppose Wolfe ever considered such a question)
