Surely you can't have humans spreading throughout the cosmos without ecosystems (which must include other lifeforms) to sustain them, so...

There's a bunch of different things here. First, I don't think it's *impossible* for humans to sustain themselves throughout the cosmos without taking advantage of pre-existing ecosystems, but that's not really germane to my point in this context.

Part of what I'm saying is that we should try to create ecosystems and seed life in areas where there is currently none, but where the conditions might be ripe for life. Another, separate part is that we might consider altering extremely simple existing ecosystems, and another step up from that would be actually colonizing well-developed ecosystems, which I'm not necessarily advocating - I think you could make a case that it might be preferable if it was the only alternative to extinction, but I recognize that there would be costs and tradeoffs in such a scenario.
