I hear you, but you counter is a little disingenuous. A city isn’t your pack, your social circle is. And that’s probably smaller than 42. Just because you’re in a city of millions doesn’t mean you directly interact with them in a social way, we are still animals of small social groups, even if we live in a global space of billions. The alpha male stuff is still bunk science trash of course.
Aren’t Alpha males (and females) an actual thing in many species, like primates? I thought just the wolves one was disproven (not that it means anything for human dynamics of course).
