Oh oh oh I was never intending to imply war and danger makes people "better" at all. As subjective as that is. My argument was directly relating to existential threats posed by disease and how removed those born in the past 60 years are from those dangers. This has undoubtedly changed our risk tolerance _for disease_ and arguably (and I don't have the answer at all) for other external factors.
War is not the answer for building a resilient society at all, and my apologies if it seemed I was implying that it was.
