Osiurak and Reynaud do not explain the evolutionary emergence and development of the elephant in the room, that is, technical cognition. We first argue that there is a tight correlation between the evolution of cumulative technological culture (CTC) and the evolution of reasoning about abstract forces. Second, intentional teaching plays a greater role in CTC evolution than acknowledged in the target article.
奥西拉克和雷诺没有解释这个显而易见的问题，即技术认知的进化起源和发展。我们首先认为，累积性技术文化（CTC）的进化与对抽象力的推理进化之间存在紧密的关联。其次，在CTC进化过程中，有意教学所起的作用比目标文章中所承认的更大。
