Right on! For instance, the fact of smaller jaws and teeth, weaker jaw
muscles, can just just as easily support the idea that man or hominids
learned how to work stone, eliminating the need to bite off chunks of
meat. A sharp knife will do as well or better than cooking. This is fact,
not opinion.
Of course, my name isn't Wrangham, so I don't call my opinions hypotheses.
