(Anonymous) 2016-04-08 08:56 pm (UTC)(link)2. In most of the A/B/O fics I've read Omegas have comprised a fairly small percentage of the population. 10% seems to be a fairly common percentage, though it can definitely vary widely from fic to fic. So even if omegas do have, statistically, more children than female betas do, they're not going to produce overwhelming numbers of offspring, any more than, say, religious people who don't use birth control produce overwhelming numbers of offspring. (Which is to say, the procreation rate of omegas and their mates probably actually would contribute to overpopulation, but not in the immediately and obviously catastrophic way that this secret seems to be implying.)
3. Some fics write betas as being significantly less fertile than regular, real world humans are. In that scenario, omegas are actually needed to keep population numbers from plummeting.
