How exactly do climate conditions which persisted some 6 to 10 thousand years ago impact the out of Africa theory? It seems that climate over the last 500,000 years (or perhaps 7mil years) would have to be considered together with the fossil record. Cherry picking doesn’t usually work.

They seem to be looking at the last wet phase as an indicator of conditions in prior wet phases.
