Hi and Welcome....awdsci said:Hello,
I believe the most common argument against this idea is the "Non- interference with discovered intelligent species " theory ,which is widely used in popular science fiction ,films etc. AKA `The Prime Directive`:- "An advanced culture meeting a less advanced civilisation should not interfere ,to allow the development of the civilisation on it`s own timescale. " (My paraphrasing of the directive).
This is a fairly obvious sentiment , since it could be the case that the technologically superior culture could ncause catastrophic social and economic changes in the society.
