Derived from what? From observation of the exact same thing already happening, or from a model of behavior?

From the fact that language of our complexity would be very hard to learn if humans didn't have specialised circuits for learning it, and the fact that evolving better language on a biological level would improve fitness.

That's untested, even if it appears likely, it's a hypothesis which doesn't predict how it would be formed or learned or how it would be used, etc

Okay, here's another. Large pupils are a sign of health and of arousal, and make humans feel more attraction, because it's a better mate for breeding. Ads that leverage a model's attractiveness will perform better if they use models with bigger pupils or digitally enlarge them.

Hypothesis for an existing observation without any robust underlying model. Even the advertisement bit is just a weak correlation which was observed after the fact and not predicted in advance based on any model
