To me the proposition seems a little unfair.
In re time: 1) Mmm, well, no. Time, to a physicist, can remain dimensional yet an hour can still drag by so I would say that the perception of time is psychological but that the understanding of time is mathematical.

2) Altruism in re the ‘evolutionarily novel.’ Stepping outside of one’s tribe altruism. Not certain that this specific type of altruism would have been mentioned on Friends?
