The 40+ years of declining growth rate seems to indicate it is likely not 100% unrestrained.
Although at this time , I can only speculate for what the source of restraint might be .. sense it is not AFAIK a deliberate conscious effort (no global police forcing people to breed less) ... and it started before significant resource shortages (given the wide spread amount of luxuries).
Intriguing
