Well, of course, dear, you are the judge, the standard, the ne plus ultra, the "stupor mundi," whose judgements of anything ... like serious interest, over years, in paleogenetics, cultural evolution, and inter-species symbiosis ... can determine what is "trivial" or "cruft."

Perhaps you should write Dr. Marcelo Sanchez-Villagra and let him know his acclaimed 2022 book on species domestication by humans [^] is just worthless, and his scientific career is a waste of time. Tell Google they made a mistake in making him a "Google Scholar."

Then, let Dr. Alice Roberts know her acclaimed recent book where she combines probing science with a story-teller;s gifts [^] is a waste.

Also write Dr. Svante Paabo, and tell him he didn't deserve the Nobel Prize last year for Neanderthal DNA genomic reconstruction.

Good taste deters me from rendering the simpler analysis Occam's Razor suggests.
