Removing all traces of humanity from the world is awful. Like, one of the worst things. The fact that Ted Faro does it for some petty motive is almost worse than some lofty nihilistic goal like Kefka has. If I was going to have all traces of my existence deleted, I don't know if it would be better to have someone ranting about the meaningless of life, or to have someone wipe me out who's more concerned with something that doesn't even concern me. (Actual answer: neither matters, because I'd be dead.)

I think if you swapped the two, Kefka would twist the terraforming into some horrible mutation that causes mass extinction. Meanwhile, Faro would find a way to kill everyone in the empire and probably go out of his way to cover his tracks about it, even if that meant exterminating the entire world population. I think this is a rare case where they both get worse in the opposing story!

I don't know. I don't think I'm articulating this well at all but either way Ted Faro seems to take the edge. Happy to hear other arguments.
