There's so much history that shows that people have always been able to think like this, and so much written proof that they have, and to the same proportion as they do today.
Besides, in 12 hour days on a field, do you not have another 4 hours to relax and think? While stalking prey for 5 miles, is it not quiet enough for you to reflect on what you're doing and why?
I do think you're onto something though when you say it's related to our material needs all being relatively met. It seems that's correlational and maybe causal.
