Oh, is it really?

It's from 97.

Right.

Maybe that would be too traumatic, right, to have a complete memory of all of the things that they had gone through to get to the 21st century.

Maybe that would be so overwhelming to you that you would never be able to progress because you would still be traumatized by, you know, whatever that 9000 year old man went through.

Right, right.

But that's the point maybe.

Maybe like losing certain memories is actually beneficial.

Because like one of the biggest problems that we have is PTSD, right?

So we have especially people that have gone to war and people that have experienced like extreme violence.

This is obviously a problem with moving forward as a human being.
