In some way, genetically inherited features of the organism affect either the ease or reinforcement with which cultural traits are handed down through time. Here it is important to note thatthe determinants of cultural fitness are exogenous to the cultural system itself. In this case, cultural transmission may be said to be controlled or regulated by the genetic inheritance system

Feedback is not to the genetic inheritance system but to the cultural one (at least at stages after the fixation of the genetic capacity for culture).
