Why is it so hard to agree with?
And I am not sure how you can say there is no detriment to the child whatsoever if he is raised by strangers. Why is that more ideal, in your view, than raised by blood?
If the child is happy, you don't see a problem? What young child would rather be with strangers rather than his parents?

While I'm completely agreeing with you about the other points, I must say if a child is raised by strangers he/her won't know any other ways. The only thing which would(not necessarily) make him/her realize that something is wrong if the stranger is somehow a bad or not fitting person, MissMisa speaks about an ideal situation, where the child is in as good hands as if they were his parents', so the answer not necessarily the parents (specially after a while, the child definitely would chose what he knows, it's safer and cozier.)
Which is more concerning, in my opinion, that how does it affect on our societies? And unfortunately it will only be revealed when the opportunity to fix it will be long gone - surely it's already gone in most western societies.
BTW these last posts are about 'career or baby' should be in another thread, shouldn't they?
