This makes their dearth of ordinary senses irrelevant to their ability to function. Humans in this 'verse don't know about or believe in psychic powers, so attribute the Ursa's observed response to fear to a mundane sense (smell). "Ghosting" works because it puts the human into a state of TranquilFury that veils their empathic signature for ''all'' emotions, not just fear. Kitai survived the attack on his home because he was in shock and too mentally shut down to be detected, not because he'd been stuffed under an airtight dome.

In both cases it's clear that despite the son's desire to please their fathers, they just can't measure up very well and their skills would be better used elsewhere but their overbearing parents refuse to believe it and throw them into the deep end with a monumental task that the son is only barely capable of doing(Going on journey across a hostile planet to retrieve a beacon for Katai and performing in a big budget movie that requires a LOT of work and advanced level acting skills to pull off in Jaden's case.)

The difficulty they had expressing emotion caused me to think of this. It was mentioned that the Rangers were originally leading humanity in its exodus from Earth before the Ursas came. At this time they weren't warriors, they were just leaders. They'd been created when humans realized that it was their inability to put aside their emotions that had caused the destruction of Earth (ie thinking in the short-term, and looking for gratification over sustainability), so they had to create a new breed of humans who could put their emotions to the side. Now, Autistics today aren't really like this, but the genes that make them more socially awkward are still (in this movie's verse) usable to make people who are just generally less emotional. When the Ursas attack, they're able to use this to wildly decrease their fear responses, and eventually to Ghost.

The difficulty they had expressing emotion caused me to think of this. It was mentioned that the Rangers were originally leading humanity in its exodus from Earth before the Ursas came. At this time they weren't warriors, they were just leaders. They'd been created when humans realized that it was their inability to put aside their emotions that had caused the destruction of Earth (ie thinking in the short-term, and looking for gratification over sustainability), so they had to create a new breed of humans who could put their emotions to the side. Now, Autistics today aren't really like this, but the genes that make them more socially awkward are still (in this movie's verse) usable to make people who are just generally less emotional. When the Ursas attack, they're able to use this to wildly decrease their fear responses, and eventually to Ghost.Ghost.

Cypher says that every animal on Earth has evolved to hunt and kill humans. We can assume from the Happening that the biosphere was turning against the humans, and the plants emitting a suicide gas was only the first step, and soon animals and the weather started turning against humans as well, forcing them to leave the Earth.
