An interesting story, and i liked the ending, but there are a couple of logic inconsistencies that are driving me nuts.
First, if the world is so over populated that humanity has to live as brains in jars, why is reproduction being mandated? Don't reproduce, population issue solved. Second, I see no reason why the subjects have to have what is basically virtual sex in order for that to happen. Get their consent for it to happen, allow them to choose who it's with if they care, and that would seem all that's needed.
I expect better of Sanderson.
