We also typically don’t integrate the values of all other adult humans—instead we assign weights to their values, strongly correlated with their distance from our own values.
People don’t practice humanity-wide CEV. We have multiculturalism—agreements not to influence each other’s values excessively—but not “value trading” where each side agrees to change their values towards the mean. (Many people / cultures like to pretend that values cannot or should not be deliberately changed at all.) I don’t have a firm opinion on how much of this is cultural, accidental, or liable to change in the near future.
Very true…

Indeed, this is presumably strongly selected for in the evolution of cultures...
