Really? I didn't know that.Now that you mention it,makes perfect sense to me. Did you deduce this or is it from a study?
It is the ordinary method of nature to bulk up for major environmental challenges and later have a surplus of whatever it is that can be used for a different purpose altogether. An unfortunate example of this is our craving for sugar, which stood us in good stead when food was scarce, but which now only ensures the survival of dentists and obesity clinics.

I did not deduce this or get it from a study; I synthesized it for myself from fragments of information gathered informally.
