In fact, in Dietz et al, we use one of the higher damage estimates out there (Burke et al), which has GDP at 5°C collapse by ~50% (with a huge range from ~25-75%).
Yes, Fig 5c of our paper shows tipping points to increase damages by an additional ~1.4%. https://gwagner.com/tipping-economics
That, of course, isn't the full story.
At 6°C, GDP has already collapsed. There's only so much tipping points could add.
And yeah, there's a book where that came from: https://climateshock.org
