Darwin. Drink water that poisons you = terminal. Drink pure H2O = thrive and here we are. Uh - I think we may have lost a few along the way.

I think this misses quite a lot of human history. For much of european history, for example, most people drank beer not water. Even children were given dilute beer. The reason is that the drinking water wasn’t safe at all, less so than drinking swamp water, because they didn’t have proper sanitation.
