I've asked the same question, more or less, not really expecting a 
reply. To put it another way: if, say, 10% of a mind is always left 
behind, is 10% enough?

for humanity). It is probably not an entirely fair question, especially 
trying to quantify like that, but it needs at least a provisional answer.
