If you are part of a tribe and contribute nothing anyone else needs, you'll soon be left to fend for yourself alone, which is a quick death sentence in nature.

Tribal societies valued different things. If they were measuring just based on economical value and "productivity" then tribal societies would have a reputation of having no elders, because they would have all been forced out.

I wasn't talking about economical value or productivity, but contribution.
Elders contribute a link to the tribe's past, knowledge that lies beyond the young members' lifespans, an endless supply of stories, and so on...

Thank God we are evolved, huh?
