Our social systems have by and large evolved to be inhabited by primates that buffer subsystem-correlations associated with between 4 and 5 of the 6 niche-network layers that look inward or outward from self, family or culture. Hence they have to implicitly assume, in effect to protect themselves from and even to build upon, behaviors which are informed to only a limited range of interests.
In some areas, however, long education-times and modern-media are helping to nurture 6-layer primates that don't fit in so well. System participants whose behavior is highly-informed are an especially-important resource that we don't want to waste, so perhaps a re-focus in social-system self-assembly is in order (whether it be to job settings or whatever) to nurture 6-layer primate behaviors (e.g. those whose awareness extends well past the edges of one's own self, family & culture).
What do you think?
