I've read about the Fermi Paradox but 40 years (or whatever) seems awfully early to assume anything.

Yeah. I think as far as paradoxes go, Fermi's Paradox is awfully overrated--the paradox part at least. As far as we've come, we still know very little about the things we've experienced, let alone worlds beyond. Therefore the "paradox" is a paradox based on assumptions and limited knowledge of the parameters to fomulate the paradox.
