Agreed that people have lots of goals that don’t fit in this model. It’s definitely a simplified model. But I’d argue that ONE of (most) people’s goals to solve problems; and I do think, broadly speaking, it is an important function (evolutionarily and currently) for conversation. So I still think this model gets at an interesting dynamic.
