Incorrect.
Peoples' anxiety about the PERCEPTION of imminent starvation (or "resource starvation") causes "most of our problems", where "most of our problems" really means inter-cultural "warfare" (rhetorical and/or physical).
More "properly functioning brains" is an asset, not a liability.
..of course, the "trick" is the "properly functioning" part!
The reason that we don't have constant population killing warfare is because it takes a set of particular conditions to push the perception of "the masses" into that highly anxious state about the imminence of starvation.
GD theory enumerates those conditions.
