I am aware of the explosion of technology starting in the 19th and 20th century.And the smelting skills of the seperate goodly races.(which was not at the expense of nature as opposed to melkor and minions) I must have a vastly differant opinion on said subject.(pessimistic perhaps)
I merely disagree with most people's overweening "feeling" that it may somehow be better. my reason- history is shot full of examples of the crimes against humanity said crimes made by MAN himself No Matter what philosophy or religion is in play. Since the dawn of time.
So that being said , my answer to the question is. No difference in my fallible opinion.
