I love Scott Alexnder's book review of The Secret Of Our Success by anthropologist Joseph Henrich.
"In giving humans reason at all, evolution took a huge risk. Surely it must have wished there was some other way, some path that made us big-brained enough to understand tradition, but not big-brained enough to question it. [...] Here, too, culture came to the rescue. One of the most important parts of any culture is its techniques for making sure nobody ever questions tradition. [...] so evolution removed those genes from the population, and successful cultures stigmatized them enough to give people an internalized fear of even trying."

Logical abstract thinkers (NT profiles) consist of less than 10%. of the population. The rest primarily are gradations of sentients: seeing & feeling-is-beliving beings. Which generally comes with short-termism and narrow-mindedness.
