SAVANNA:

"They survived by endurance running which they couldn't do
yet, not five seconds after falling out of a tree, so they all
went extinct until finally endurance running evolved, then
they all became zombies, got up from the ground and
everything was cool."

WATERSIDE:

They picked up shellfish and ate them. When the shellfish
were all gone, or too much work to bother with, they walked
away to a clean stretch of beach and started all over again.

That's it. That gets them all the brain-building Omega-3s they
could ever need, and then some. That moved them across the
continents. That allowed a higher population density -- the sea
can support more mouths than inland hunter gathering -- whch
in turn meant greater genetic diversity. That gets us the
periodic movement of groups inland to escape conflicts, disease,
natural disasters and even climate fluctuations. This meant
that diverse groups arose as each of the inland populations
adapted to their unique environments. This meant that the
remain waterside population would link all these diverse groups,
share each others DNA with them as they interbreed.

There. Everything. All of it. Waterside, Punctuated Equilibrium,
Multi Regionalism/Regional Continuity, Coastal Dispersal:

IT'S ALL EXPLAINED!

Aquatic Ape explains everything while savanna can't even
explain savanna!

I'm too humble to say I'm right but, goddamnit, I am right.
Even if I won't say so.

I've said it before and I'll say it again: I'm so brilliant that I sometimes catch myself wishing that I could be me.

"A pervasive pattern of grandiosity (in fantasy or behavior)"

Yep, narcissistic PD.

"Fallacious Argument."

Google it. In particular you need to study ad hominem.

See, right here right now you're displaying a sense of superiority even
as you avoid everything I've said. You're not attacking my position,
you're attacking me. In my case, on the other hand, it is NOT ad hominem.
My pointing out your enormous personal flaws, including your
narcissism, is NOT "my argument." It's in response to you once again
AVOIDING an argument that you can't control, distracting from that
argument you can't control and instead lobbing personal attacks.

Personal attacks as "Argument" = ad hominem

An argument that INCLUDES but is not limited to personal attack = Nope

Savanna idiocy is not even internally consistent, as I pointed out. They evolved the ability to survive on the savanna by surviving on the savanna. Endurance hunting caused them to evolve the means to endurance run!

None of the contradictions exist for Aquatic Ape. All they had to do was
pick up stuff & eat it. That's it. That all by itself provides them with a
diet with all the protein they could ever need, and then some. That alone
would grow their brains just as large as genetics would allow, and leave
them poised to spring on any mutations that allowed for even larger
brains. That alone gets them everywhere! It's the reason and the means
for migrating across the globe: Following the coast, picking up stuff &
eating it.

The savanna idiocy can't even explain the savanna, while Aquatic Ape
explains everything.

Anyone who believes in savanna idiocy would have to be so stupid that
they'd... I dunno... they'd have to be so stupid that they'd believe
something like "Naledi buried their dead."

Do you know anyone that stupid?
