MONOGAMY MAY BE GOOD BUT IT”S NOT CLEAR WE CAN RECREATE THE INCENTIVES

— “(Historically, strict chastity + absolute monogamy produce the greatest returns as norms/ideals)” —

Again, I don’t see how these are truths rather than circumstances, and until I can construct a causal proof that survives. I see no evidence that anything other than sex, serial monogamy, exhaustion of opportunity, utility of property, in competition with lifespan are ‘true’.

I can agree that …
1) the intemporal preservation of multi-generational families
2) in territorial proximity
3) in homogeneous polities
…. produces the optimum capital returns under the broadest array of circumstances.

And That:
1) Monogamous LTR = Capital accumulation at cost of psychological and emotional consumption = adaptation vs maladaptation (adaptation)
2) It causes homogeneity of interests and therefore homogeneity of interests in the production of common (universal cost reduction)
3) Reproductively it creates class sortition (natural selection)

I just don’t know about how incentives can be altered back to it.
