The wilderness was millenias ago. I don't buy it.

We have perfectly evolved the ability to use technology. We evolved past the hunter gatherer lifestyle.

Nobody walks past a berry bush and is like oh wow I need to harvest all of that in case I can't find any food tomorrow.

I mean, I do, because I love berries, but I don't carry a basket around just in case. I explicitly head out to collect the berries and people look at me like I'm a crazy mfer. There's this massive blackberry bush right outside work. When they get ripe you can easily harvest a whole bucket of them every 3 or so days. Then there's the strawberry patch next to the dirt road that lead in the forest. Etc.

Not everyone knows, or cares to learn how to tech.

Step away from urbanization, and see there are still villages that hunt&ga𓆛r.

Then you don't rural. ADHD is a very real thing.

Also, pockets are cute.
