Ha! Good one.

On a serious note here are the issues

• He can’t explain how the event impacted the rest of the world. Only a fraction of the human race was there. How does he explain China for example?
• We already know that meta-cognition isn’t limited to humans. A rat that knows where food is vs ones that do not engage in different behaviors.
• He can’t explain the almost superhuman reflex speeds some people have in modern times under his model.

I do agree some of it rings true. Just very hard to pin down what exactly.
