And? It's only a few years since folks were deeply worried about overpopulation, and whether the earth could support 10 billion people...

Yeah, I don't understand how we can be worried about both things at the same time. In my view, it's good that reproduction is below replacement. Yeah, pensions won't be great, but at least we won't spread like a cancer onto a strained planet.
