I think you're slightly wrong here. I'd say most, or possibly almost all humans don't learn from other people's mistakes. But _some_ people do learn _some_ things from other people's mistakes instead of their own. I don't think this is some sort of innate human thing, I think it's purely down to ego. You think you know more or you're better than the person who made the mistake, and therefore you don't listen to them because you would never do that.
