Above you mention two types of people:

Most people here like science and everything around it...

Most people on the outside however are more obsessed about money or status...

But I am clarifying that my observation is from the point of view of human conscious objectives human may have vs biological objectives.

I think all evolved traits respond to biological goals and that we may regard some biases as flawed, but that's from the human perspective.
