Will this one-by-one system forever be our main thing or do you think we will break monogamy and maybe "team up" as groups or something?
And yeah polygamy is a thing but do you think it will catch on to "the upper class"?

If you didn't read the rest of the paragraph, you should. It was comparing against variants of polygamy, plus 2 cultures that had polyandry, which I discussed elsewhere. Western-style polyamory didn't even make the rankings. I can only think of one other culture (the Mosuo) that might count.
Like I said, it might be an abuse of terminology to call this all monogamy, but natural language is inherently imprecise and this isn't an academic audience that can digest heavy jargon.
