Nature just provides the “plan”, nurture makes the man.

What would happen to persons raised without any interaction with people: what would they become with no nurture?

Not sure they would be “human”.

And no, I do not advocate trying any such thing just to see...

I believe something very close to your theory happened in the Soviet Union or some other dystopian society where many infant orphans were subjected to almost no human nurturing. A large number of the wasted away and died.
