Thanks, rewrote and tried to clarify. In essence the researchers were testing transmission of “strategies” for using a tool, where an individual was limited in what they could transmit to the next user, akin to this relay experiment.
In fact they found that trying to convey causal theories could undermine the next person’s performance; they speculate that it reduced experimentation prematurely.
