South Korea won't be extinct in 100 years, it's one of the densest country on earth, if its population reduces by 60% in the meantime it will be dense like...Switzerland. Is Switzerland in the state of "functional extinction"? No. (Also, same density as North Korea).
Meanwhile every Indian flees their awesome home country, and no one complains about the emigration and indian population reduction. Maybe because it's also a way for them to fix the selective abortions and widely biased sex ratio that came as a consequence?
You seem to know very little for confidently spouting “facts”. Functionally extinct means it’s a country of old people that can’t make any more kids. Population density has nothing to do with anything - https://www.keaf.org/en/book/EAF_Policy_Debates/The_Risk_of_...
Indians will directly tell you it’s not awesome but it’s definitely on the path to being so. If it can pull off its performance from the last 15 years for the next 15, it will be developed.
India’s birth rate is far below replacement rate already. So much so that the government is starting to encourage people to have more kids again.
