There is actually a theory (I don’t remember what it’s called but I think it was like quantum theory maybe) where say a monkey on one island figures out to use a rock to open a coconut. Soon after, all the monkeys on another island will start breaking coconuts with rocks. Knowledge can be learned as a species, not as an individual. That’s also how we know how to draw those S symbols in middle school.
