Use for explaining collective knowledge and conviviality; not a warrant for intoxication during rigorous tasting or professional work.
Figures 71/73 combine task and developmental evidence; correlation across studies does not demonstrate alcohol efficacy. Figure 79 is model output, not a population survey. Prisoner's Dilemma 83–84 is a conceptual payoff example. Alcohol discussion 91–95 includes impaired cognition. Notes 288–291 include sober play and contrary shipwreck evidence.
The creative, cultural and communal human niche depends on social learning and cooperation. Developmental comparisons, the blicket task, brain-development plots and cultural-learning models support a contrast between flexible exploration and efficient control. The chapter then proposes intoxication as one route to reduced control.
