I agree it would've been even more clear if I used "civilization" instead of "society". Fair point, as more precise language is usually preferable.
Are you saying the main point / logic of my post wasn't clear? It wasn't feasible to consider replacing this one word and evaluate the likely intent? This feels like you're being a bit nitpicky and pedantic.
Still, your point stands. I hope you can concede my point here too...
Yes, I was of course nitpicking. The only reason I did so is that others in this thread already seemed to be commenting based on that interpretation of your post, and in the followup comments you all seemed to be talking past each other. I don't disagree with the content of your original post in general.
