How so?

We have human societies that never moved past hunter/gatherer; or basic agriculture. Or perhaps reverted back.

Does that imply that they’re somehow less intelligent? And so, by an order of magnitude?

I don’t expect anyone to change your mind—that much is clear—but for someone like me it’s an interesting question because it gets to the heart of what it means to be intelligent; aware; and driven.

Even the standard “man is the measure of all things” has more nuance than at first glance.
