Because WW1 happened. I think that WW2 is more visible because it's easier to write about. It's not easy to give hard numbers for the loss of normalcy, the everyday rules of ordinary matters that happened in WW1.

I don't disagree with that. 1-bit NNs will make nvidia the steam car of this century.

Neoteny makes people immature. Self centered, childish, irresponsible, agressive. It's well known which dog breeds cause the majority of injuries - pittbulls, which are little more than overgrown puppies.

On the contrary, autistic people tend to be way too mature for their age, often visibly so. (it used to be called the "little professor syndrome")
It seems to me that's what they actually found - the genes accelerate maturation. Maybe it's just the neoteny fetish of the modern society that makes it feel like a disorder.
