Well that is worth examining. What does Fabrice think of his own legacy, and how much does it matter to him compared to other aspects of life? We can't really answer that question without his own input. How would the fabric of our lives change if we had a legacy similar to that of Fabrice?
The reason I'm asking these things is that we often hear the words legacy and respect in specific contexts similar to this one, but there isn't much follow up as to what this respect and legacy entails for the individual or exactly why it is so important compared to other aspects. This is a crucial part for our life plan because we consider people like Fabrice in retrospect after they have already succeeded, in a fun twist on the anthropic principle, but we don't consider the alternative Fabrices who have failed in other universes and risked everything for legacy. And we rarely consider the past Fabrices in our own universe from previous generations whom we have already forgotten despite their success.
