I can never decide if I'd prefer what we have now over what we had then. Certainly there's a great deal to be said about now, but..

But on the other hand the downsides are extremely not ideal at all whatsoever across virtually all time periods and I'm far more likely to suffer than not, given a random birth.

Man does society ever just get to you some times.
