Settling the Moon will involve many factors, but the key will be whether humans can procreate and have their fetuses develop normally in low gravity states. We have evidence that other mammalian fetuses do not develop properly in microgravity.
If lunar gravity is enough to support normal fetal development and birth, we'll be off to the races. If not, settling space will have to take a different tack.
