It is too expensive to run a factory production line (school) when all the raw materials (children) you're building with are different.
The "social mediation" works by complex alchemy like 3rd order inflections on prosody or facial expression that needs to be correlated to intentional context to be learned. If your brain does not pass signals far enough, it might be too difficult to learn via perception alone.

One of the recent studies on serotonin->vagal nerve->brain influence suggested that it indirectly boosts oxytocin in the part of the brain that was found to be associated with social aspects. I am hoping someone does studies on that.

The oxytocin might also be the result of successful social interaction; it may just be the signal that is being used to facilitate ingroup bonding. The social emotion that triggers the bonding may in turn be facilitated by the serotonin. That could explain the effect of MDMA.
