you scratch my back...
Suppose you are not the biggest person on the block, but you
have thousands of years to become one. What do you do? If you are
an animal, the most straightforward approach is becoming physically
bigger, like the alpha male in a dog pack, with selection favoring
muscle and bone. But there is another way to double your biomass.
It’s not by creating a body but by creating an ally. If you can establish
cooperative agreements with some of your neighbors, you can double
your power even if you do not personally double your strength. You
can dominate the world.
