Distinguishing tenet of the selfish is their belief that reality can be easily managed - and thus easily managed by themselves alone

Scientists who tend towards Natural Philosophy have an undying faith that an (as yet invisible) simplicity lies just below reality's highly visible surface complexity.

Natural History oriented scientists (such as Martin Henry Dawson) don't believe reality is at all simple or can be easily managed at all - let alone easily managed by small groups alone acting alone.

Rather it can, at best , be survived , and that by humanity working together.
