Haha, not when it's memorizations. I'd doubt I'd pass most of my exams in uni.
It's just a question of whether or not you want to repeat, for many that's a solid no
That depends on if you want time
Yeah no thanks, I'd rather not be bored for 2 decades again, without the fun of thinking like a child.
Right?! Worst years of our lives are spent waiting in glorified daycare till we are 18.
This is a guess but the fluid dynamics likely changes? As the size of the group increases the Reynolds number probably increases making inertia a significant factor.
Individual human runners in air is maybe a bad analogy think more like honey where every stroke pushes you back as much as it pushes you forward.

From your first article
"Darwin's theory of evolution by natural selection is entirely focused on an explanation of life's biological diversity. It is a scientific theory meant to explain observations about species. Yet some have used the theory to justify a particular view of human social, political, or economic conditions. All such ideas have one fundamental flaw: They use a purely scientific theory for a completely unscientific purpose. In doing so they misrepresent and misappropriate Darwin's original ideas"
So what is this post trying to do?
More like two people sharing resources to reproduce more effectively while having a gun pointed towards each other at all times
Yes, but there are likely factors produced by both parties in the symbiotic relationship that keep each other in check. Otherwise one of the parties could become parasitic instead.
This whole conversation comparing evolutionary mechanisms that are complex enough to include self sacrifice just to have more "you", is a poor analogy anyways. While humans evolved their social dynamics, i'd like to think we can operate beyond what's best for our species.
I'll have you know that they've had running water for at least the last 10 years
