Given enough intimacy and comfort with somebody, we naturally devolve into more animalistic, child-like states, communicating more physically, more playfully, growling, chirping, moaning, etc. Our rational states serve as protectors—if not needed, we readily dispose of them.

Yes, children especially need the physicality, the embodied attention. Even saying “I love you” to a child is not nearly as communicative and powerful as a hug.

I agree. The ability to devolve into an animalistic state, to ascend into an intellectual state, and fluidly move between the two with someone is the sign of a solid, intimate relationship.
