But the flipside of focus is a vast blindness. You can’t have one without the other. Which might explain a lot. It’s a strong argument for widespread use of drugs like weed and shrooms.

Seems like you’ve combined two ideas for no reason.
I can agree with “focus on one thing, miss the rest” but I don’t think it’s inherently human. If one of my cats has found something to stalk, they become hyper focused and pretty much oblivious to anything else happening around them. Other animals’ ears will perk up as they try to find the source of a sound and determine if it is predator or prey.
We’re certainly smarter than other animals, but is it really because of focus or just more mental ability?
Yes. Also, what does this have to do with shrooms and weed?
