I do agree with their puzzlement as to "why are people always surprised by some of these findings?"
Assume that our ancestors were just as smart as we are and that they knew their way around and wanted to live. You start from that point and most of the findings, while very interesting, are not surprising.
Now if they find a stainless steel spear point, that would be surprising. :)
