And any number of bioengineering, societal/cultural shifts, and transporation and wealth improvements could help increase our effective Dunbar’s number.
That’s something I’ve wondered about, and also what you could accomplish by having an organization of people with unusually high Dunbar’s numbers.
Or a breeding population selecting for higher Dunbar’s numbers.
Or does that qualify as bioengineering?
I suppose it should count as bioengineering for purposes of this discussion.
