If we believed in HBD we could at least in theory end the conflict and the problems. We could, for example, find was to change those hidden biological variables so that everyone had the same values. (

I think that a better solution is to redesign society to 𝘳𝘦𝘥𝘶𝘤𝘦 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘴𝘵𝘢𝘬𝘦𝘴 of competition. High-stakes completion between humans where if you lose you can become homeless but if you win you get a yacht is bad and heavily incentivizes conflict.

High stakes competition provides an incentive for genocide and war. Medium-stakes competition where if you lose you get a yacht but if you win you get a really nice yacht is much better.
