(This about dath ilan:  They never even considered not optimizing the shit out of sex.  There are regular Very Serious debates, some of them hidden behind fourth-tier pervertedness ciphers, about which parts of sex should have the shit optimized out of them, versus being allowed to be wild and free.  But that sex not be crazily optimized at all would be a mad extremist position, which nobody could take Very Seriously.

There is, to be sure, the whole system of avoiding spoilers for young people, which means that their earliest sex is not all that optimized.  You only get to discover sex once, after all; you wouldn't want to spoil those surprises, any more than you'd tell kids about conservation of momentum instead of putting them in a setting where they can discover classical mechanics for themselves.  Now and then, Civilization assembles together a group of recently-initiated young geniuses, who haven't been told about any standard methods yet, and asks them to consider from scratch how sex should best be optimized, in case Civilization's accustomed thought patterns are missing something.  It is not that dath ilan tries to destroy all naivety as fast as it can be destroyed by truth; some innocence is hedonically or scientifically useful to preserve for a time, if not forever.  But once you are initiated into the first tier of spoilered discussion for sex, you get to learn about those standard optimizations that are simple common sense for repairing the elementary defects of sex in a state of nature; though not the fancier standard sexual-overcomplications.

And then, of course, exactly how much standard sexual training a young man might invest his limited skill points into, depends upon that young man's hedonism, horniness, competitiveness, competing life priorities, and how much it bugs him to think he could be doing it better.)
