My sister has a phrase 'feral children'. (She graduated from college with a 4.0 average, masters in early childhood education.) As examples, my father grew up in an era before everyone had a car, but there was a street car system that let you move around freely. They started from Abington and often ended up on the coast, several towns away. Not an adult in sight. No supervision.
We grew up too with little supervision. When we wanted to play sports we would buck up and the natural leaders would pick teams. Again, not an adult in sight.
By contrast my nice and grand nieces had dance classes. Adults drove them everywhere. Adults provided coaching and leadership. All they had to do was sit there and do what the adults told them to do. They got fairly good at doing what they were told.
They are nice kids, and the niece grew into a nice adult, but not self organizing. They were not feral children.
The S&H system includes how childhood experiences shape generations as adults. Todays 'heros' did not have the same childhood experience as happened in the Industrial Age. They are different from those that came before. Specifically, they cannot organize their way out of a paper bag. They will sit like a lump and wait for an adult to tell them what to do.
My shutting up will not turn the Industrial Age children into clones of the Industrial Age children. S&H built their theory around the Industrial Age, and did not check it against what was really happening. The S&H theory states that Hero generations will be a certain way, and none of their slavish devotees are checking to see if the Hero lifestyle was the same in childhood resulting in the same sort of result. It is as I said in the a recent post, if the Age changes, what you thought you learned in the prior Age has to be double checked, verified. If your expectations are not being met, what are the new expectations, and why have they changed?
In this case, the invention of labor saving appliances in the home allowed the parent to do more parenting. Cars became far more common, allowing non neighborhood interactions. The consequence was a very different childhood, and a very different group of adults.
I see nothing to make me believe the so called Heroes will change when another generation of adults is no longer there to provide coaching and leadership. The important thing is that they do not do it themselves. They sit like lumps when no one tells them what to do and how to do it.
And it is a lesson in historical theories as well. If you worship a system such as S&H without checking it against reality, one is likely to make false assumptions and have false understandings.
At any rate, until the Hero leaders appear and take charge, the older generations have to stay in the role of adults.

My understanding is different from yours, in good part because I check against reality. For example, I just connected the Hero passive response to the 'feral children' description. I can change and update my models. Worshipers of a dead system can't.

Try checking against reality.
