I wonder why the babies don’t eat each other. There must be a huge selective pressure to winnow down your fellows to the point where you don’t need to be winnowed. This would in turn select for small brained, large and quick growing at the least. There might also be selective pressure to be partially distrusting of your fellows (assuming there was some cooperation), which might follow over into adulthood.
I also agree with the points Carl raised. It doesn’t seem very evolutionarily plausible.
