If they are forbidden from killing directly but still want to eliminate the Earth's population, having everyone starve to death is a good workaround.

But not until after they use their new conscripted workforce to condition the planet to their liking.  Which could still easily happen without integrating the 12 holdouts, merely isolating them.  Especially now that informed consent is required to collect bodily materials necessary to integrate.

This is what I'm saying... they clearly aren't forbidden from killing, because they killed a billion people. That seems to be something ingrained in the fun RNA they sent us. So humans now (except for 12) are forbidden from picking apples, because that's how they've been programmed.

Not killing humans but instead infecting them with a virus that forces them to kill themselves slowly is some pretty silly moral gymnastics.  I'd like it more if it ends up being a tongue and cheek satire of our own behavior atop the food chain ("These chicken got to lead a great, free-range life until we murdered them.")

Something akin to our destruction as a species ending up as an asterik on a carton in  an alien grocery store or warehouse, saying something like: "these inter-planetary resources were harvested ethically and responsibly."
