If we are looking at what's in are basic genes as a marker on what we should be doing, I don't think we should be messing about with fusion. Or fission come to think of it. I agree loneliness and mental health are big problems today however don't think the answer is having an adversary to motivate yourself.

Why?

I didn't say we should live stone age style. And using technology is very akin to our genes, afaik. So I don't see any problems with that. What matters more than the tools are the social interactions I believe. And there we could do better.
