Perhaps we should come up with some sort of maxim to remind ourselves that not every weird result has a complex possibly-evolutionary explanation - ‘sometimes, people really are just stupid’.
People are very frequently stupid, but there is always a causal explanation of their stupidity.
It’s just that sometimes there is a very simple explanation that helps predict the direction of stupidity, and that we might share that stupidity.
