#2 Lots of genetic mutations manifest as mental or physical disorders, Skidmark. Are we talking at cross purposes?

Looking at being #1 in the world for Consanguineous Marriages is 1 explanation. But then add in cultural, environmental, Religious teachings, and general conflicts with the incoming Smartphone generation.

I can see even Higher Percentages than admitted to.

Female vs. Male for Mental Illness

Females exceed Males in all countries.
Also, the 14 to 35-year-old bracket especially.

#11 I can see even Higher Percentages than admitted to.

The good doctor is just talking about noticeable mental disorders, NN2N1. Probably the same percent have visible physical disorders, where the groups overlap by some amount, meaning less than 30% of the population have a noticeable disabling genetic mutation. The same again are total probably carriers, and a somewhat larger number probably have deleterious genetic mutations mild enough that the symptoms are not noticeable, if this follows a normal Bell curve.

#13 They all grow up in an insane asylum; it's a miracle 100% Pakistanis don't have PTSD, quite aside from family trees that don't fork.

#14 That don't forking can cause inbreeding.
