And there is only one way we could get that way - evolution Exactly – humans use heuristics for almost everything and that makes good sense (because of the costs of central processing).

And there is only one way we could get that way – evolution

We are genetically programmed to choose the peripheral route, because those individuals who took the time to centrally process information got eaten.
