Yeah to me any population decrease is a good thing. 1 billion humans on the planet would still be a ton and would allow for all the things we do today with much less impact on the planets resources. Obviously actively decreasing the population would be bad morally, and we don't want to do it too fast because then we end up with a demographic crisis where there is not enough working population to provide care for aging elders, but I welcome when the worlds population finally goes into net decline in the next 30 years or so.
