Physical needs, and all, assign value to necessities. And then that value is translated into an abstract shared across both necessities and other items, tricking the human mind into thinking most objects have inherent value beyond their utility. This abstract is then exchanged for time and effort, to which people assign different values and so on and so forth.What there aren’t, as far as I know, are humans who don’t have the impulse to collect in the first place.
That's why Bonobos will exchange sexual acts for favors from other apes. They perceive orgasms and other acts as having interchangeable values.
It's also why Crows will perform complex tasks to gain a reward, but express anger if the reward isn't equal to the effort they put forth on previous iterations of the exchange. They recognize that their work is worth a certain amount or more, and will be upset if given less.
Same thing with rats and mice.
