As teacher, I love that notion of incuriosity.
I think nature is stronger than nurture. But nurture is pretty strong.
But I think, maybe, nature likes to cover all its bets.
Perhaps in certain environments, this trait (slothful safety seeking) is just want the dr ordered?
Look at all the weirdos who have the perfect temperament to code.
In another context that trait might be a negative.
I always say to the kids, "be safe, but not so safe it eliminates the potential for opportunity."
On a side note, smart phones breed incuriosity.
Another side note, lots of unfit people are breeding.

Yes, I agree.I An over attachment to 'safety' (or fear of loss) and a rejection of novelty/challenge isn't just sloth, it's a variety of birth defect.
