Evolution is a continuous random branching and selective pruning process. And there is not a lot of pruning going on in the current human explosion. So unless ADHD is an old branch and we see other mammals survive because of their distractability, I remain skeptical.

I think of it in terms of explore/exploit. I imagine ADHD is more on the former side of the spectrum
