There are a lot of Men and they breed very fast. Bringing them all back when they die is probably better than not doing that but possibly not ideal, and does present the resource problem. Sending them to another planet might be nice but some Men will probably kill themselves to get to the next planet. An optimal solution would look something like what we have for Elves, which is where there's a known place you get reembodied right away with no fuss, except we'll need far more space to accommodate Men. Given peace and enough food within an Age there'll be a hundred billion of them.
