Our objective is twofold: (1) to advise the authors to engage more fully with the tenets of ecological psychology, from which the term “affordance” originates, and (2) to note that the article’s framing aligns with traditional evolutionary psychology, rebranding modular, information-processing, heredity-first assumptions in ecological language. This don’t deny that affordances are central to explaining behavioral change across life stages.
