What's your take on this? Is a million people suffering

It all could be avoided if people just stopped reproducing.

No, minor annoyance is tolerable.

I mean the first is more fair but if some riteous individual who is able to familiarize himself with the pain is willing to take it on, let him.

What really matters is if the pain was justified

Both should be avoided
No one deserves pain or annoyance
Although I'd disagree with you. If there's going to be pain it should at least be shared equally.

I only care about the one that's affecting me

As someone with cluster headaches.

The pain is so bad my eyes water and my face swells, I can't see out of my eye on the right sometimes.

I've had people tell me its the worst pain imaginable and I believe them.

I've had times though that i've been able to fight through it to drive something to town for my family's work.

I would say that knowing I can somewhat bear pain, I would do it for someone else who couldn't. I would only hope they don't take it for granted.

I wonder how Schopenhauer's philosophy would've been like if he lived more like Camus.

Assuming 1 million and 1 average people who aren't especially good or bad then I'd say the immense pain would be worse.

Immense pain will ruin that person's life while most people will be able to become habituated to the annoyance, like people do with loud noises or how you don't even notice when you get a small scratch.
