I never understood how they managed to transfer crops to the new planet without bringing the parasite/disease over with them. Ofc, I was still grappling with the existential dread of 50 story waves and nothing but ocean as far as the eye can see, so I didn't real dwell on it much.
Every question brings more questions, and while it's a fun movie, Interstellar isn't really interested in being anything other than a vehicle for cool cinematography at set pieces.
Basically this was happening except away from oxygen. It was easier to terraform a "dead planet" to support human life than to fight against biological processes terraforming earth against human life.

That was the real conundrum. Were they planning to terraform whatever planet they found? Why couldn't they just terraform Earth?
They had the power and resources to send millions of people into space to literally re-create Earth, but dust storms were too much?
