Or take Hans Reiser

Hunter-gatherers were healthier, better nourished and lived longer lives than early sedentary people

But there could not have been a teleological evolutionary strategy like hey, let's settle down

You are throwing aliasing error all over the map. And I don't see a benefit to wasting my time on it.

Although repeatable scientific tests may be out of reach, it does not mean we have to resort to conjecture. There's some evidence and we may reason based on it

It is all aliasing error, because there do not exist total orders in our universe nor in nature. Everything is a partial order and perspective is always relative. This can be easily proved by noting that a total order would be equivalent to real-time omniscience, but this would require the speed-of-light to not be finite, which would collapse the past and future into each other.

So all you will ever have is relative agreement and disagreement.

That is why I won't waste my time reading your propaganda books.
