>From a gene propagation standpoint.. Agriculture is the clear winner Removing the primary means of genetic selection doesn't improve gene propogation qualitatively and it only improves quantity in theory until population levels reach capacity and another limitation restricts further growth. If birth rates decline over all, such that 1/1 survive now rather than 2/10 then we have regressed both quantitatively and qualitatively on an individual level. The only thing agriculture has added is the stability and certainty of food supply for those who control the means of production; which allows for a larger population, economics, and tech development, but doesn't necessarily improve genetic propogation in the long term for individuals.
