I will agree that an accounting mentality was not a conscious endeavor of
our species, Counterproductive? You'll need to talk a little more about
that one.

What do you think our forbearers did when they wanted fruit or veggies or
meat or nuts or whatever, when their supermarket wasn't open?

Sure, but I expect that more than anything else the stomach (brain) wants
