Those feedback loops can trigger other detrimental changes, like the balance of gasses in the air. Climate scientists have speculated that the composition of the atmosphere could swing wildly, as it has done in the past. Oxygen, methane, CO2, etc., may climb too high or too low, for example. It's not just 'hot weather' and rising seas that are a concern. These are just possibilities, but it would better not to have options like this on the table at all.
