This may collapse and be replaced with a freer system as you say. You know what happens then, don't you? Ten generations max and it's sick and ready for the ashbin again. The cycle continues. Is there a point to the endless rise and fall cycle? I dunno, beyond my pay grade. I do know humankind can't sustain a decent society in the context of civilization. Hunter-gatherer groups do much better in that regard. Seems that's what we're designed for and we can't handle modernity. One huge advantage primitive groups have is psychopaths can be eliminated, rather than allowed to thrive.
