But if you don't like that one, then how about you add in population growth, since people will have all this spare time to boink each other? Hey, you're the one who wants to make this happen, I'm just trying to think outside the box for you.

Basically, everyone on the Earth is not going to drop everything and shuffle cards all day. We couldn't even survive that for very long. So, in taking the total poulation of the Earth as my number, I'm making an impossibly generous concession, in order to imagine this actually happening. The 40-hour week is something familiar to us; I'm trying to put it in real terms.
If you like, I could go back to having each person shuffle an exponential amount of decks every second...
