While researching further out data for /Stralor/will-climate-change-decimate-humans-9f63de4b27a2 and /Stralor/will-climate-change-decimate-humans-a6501c666cd9 , I noticed that the UN had projections for what level the populations of various regions will cap out at. Will these medium-case projections be exceeded?

The relevant section from the 2022 UN Projections:

The population of Latin America and the Caribbean, which quadrupled in size between 1950 and 2022, is projected to peak at just below 752 million around 2056 and decline thereafter to about 646 million in 2100.
