I didn’t downvote, but I don’t like your statement. I mostly agree with the biological facts, but you state them as if they apply directly and straightforwardly to the post’s question about human affairs. If applied in the most obvious way, they lead to the unfortunate implications, but I don’t think that application really makes sense. And I can’t help suspecting these apparent implications are a result of motivated stopping.
