Population decline due to low birth rates has never happened. Population declines have always been due to disease or war or something like that, taking the adults and leaving a young population behind. It's not about a system, an aging population with low birth rates probably amounts to population collapse, but we are in uncharted territory and can't know for sure how it plays out.
