I'd advise that person to change their attitude about that, because it's stupid and inhuman. Otherwise you get the absurd statement that average people in most countries, billions, a normal married guy in Vietnam, none of their lives are worth living.

No, that doesn't follow at all. Having less access to experiences of value is not remotely the same as having no value.
