It's not really your place to try to correct people about things you aren't necessarily educated or informed about. I know you believe yourself to be well educated on the topic, but I'm going to guess your actual books read and hours logged on research regarding ancestral health are pretty minimal. And I can't link you to peer-reviewed studies unless we both have access to the same academic journal databases... however, everything I linked for you was thoroughly documented, so all you have to do is scroll down to sources lists and search. But I got the impression you didn't want to read. So that's okay.
I've never been terribly interested in debating my lifestyle. It only happens when someone sitting near me (or reading...I guess? I've never had anyone get internet-mad about it before) while someone else is asking me questions and winds up getting defensive, even though I never respond to questions with "You should be like me!". It happened when I was vegan. It happens now. Seriously, you probably don't want to be that person. That person sorta sucks.

We know they ate bread because we found 20,000 year old bread. We don't know what their daily meal plan was. We do know they weren't dietitians who found the healthiest diet in the world. They idolized an obese woman, after all.
I have linked to peer reviewed studies, there are quite a few that are available online. I could not find a single thing that said beans are dangerous or that cholesterol isn't a concern. I looked on Google Scholar and World Cat, not a single study to say beans are going to give you diabetes, just some saying "hey, some beans have completely absolutely harmless lectin", and all foods have lectin, and beans are good for you.
I have no desire to read quackery. There's a lot out there, I can link you to sites by doctors that say HIV doesn't cause AIDS, fetus cry when you abort them and vaccines are killing our children.
What you have given me is books written by quacks, not science.
