[P] This is why extinction is baked in. All the roads that lead to extonction are low-cost, whereas the roads that protect against it are high-cost. And if the vast human majority has an overwhelmingly strong low-coat bias (which it does, as has been confirmed by countless studies going back decades)? Then extinction is a given. It isn't IF, but WHEN, and the answer to that is very eoon. It'll be faster than expected.

[P] If you changed the experiment to killing twenty hedgehogs or solving s complex task? Again, the task would be chosen because the price is too high. But for a low-cost buased brain? "These aren't MY pets. They're just dumb, wild animals. Ugh, I'd get messy. But it's worth it for the food." The only time a brain with a low-cost bias chooses morality is if not choosing it carries a heavy social penalty, impeding the reward.
