They are literally telling us that a goddamn savanna couldn't do, doesn't explain human evolution at all,
could not have supported our ancestors BUT THAT IT'S STILL RIGHT!

Once they conclude that the savanna is stupid, move on: Aquatic Ape.
P.S. Jane Goodall was never a scientist. He contaminated her research, interacted with the Chimps
she studied, attributed humans actions and motives to them.
