Yup. Until there's selection pressure working against you once again. Imagine if society broke down completely, so you had to fight for the limited amount of food that was available?

Somewhat related: it was interesting when my kids were born; they both had to be C-sectioned. I asked the obstetrician about it, and yes, bigger heads are becoming more and more common because mother+child no longer just die when they do occur. We really are removing selection pressures!
