... and in the meantime, the systems of thought (as I tried to argue in my other posts) that are erected to hide these basics behaviors will become increasingly intricate and complex and hide this very fact that people are people in increasingly interesting ways.

I believe, as I mentioned above, the idea that 'humans are not rational' is one of the latest such constructs to hide basic reality.

In a way, it is an interesting evolution of delusion, to the point where it gets extremely hard to avoid being drawn into it.

Thinking this line further, maybe the next restart will be rather due to the fact that the complexity is so big that people just accept reality?
