I do...Great analysis of one heck of a freaky story. I don't think Campbell explicitly faults humanity for not colonizing extraterrestrial worlds, though it is a relevant observation from reading the story. Even the laziness & unseriousness of the last humans is just lightly criticized. I think he doesn't blame these future humans for that cuz it's what comes naturally to us & is part of an evolutionary process that doesn't judge or partake in human notions of good, bad, fault or blame. Evolution just is, it just happens, like the stars in the sky. It doesn't personally care about or judge humans any more than a tire judges the air it's filled with or the road it travels on.
