@WildZoo @bluestoat @potentialsheltervet thoughts pls

Ooohhh I have a book that discusses this! I need to find it. I think the book was like "super ancient phrases are inconclusive but seem supportive of familial binds and hereditary personality flaws" as a way to criticize people, like, dinguses can't reform. And then it went into evolution of the phrase. Gotta find it though.

There’s this from wiki too

Two modern commentators, author Albert Jack[10] and Messianic Priest Richard Pustelniak,[11] claim that the original meaning of the expression was that the ties between people who have made a blood covenant (or have shed blood together in battle) were stronger than ties formed by "the water of the womb", thus "The blood of the covenant is thicker than the water of the womb". Neither of the authors cite any sources to support their claim.

Idk. It seems to me like two bing-bongs decided to repurpose the phrase to suit what they wanted to say. I imagine finding the source for an "ancient proverb" is basically impossible, so I guess we'll never really know.
I did find the German phrase from the 12th century, though, so I guess that's neat.

The nice thing about Iranic proverbs is that they carved this stuff in stone and had a surprisingly continuous language, so it's a lot less cryptic to interpret phrases from like the 10th or 9th century. They're also close enough to Greece that the Greeks probably had a similar and well-preserved saying. One of my favorite things about Irish deities and myth, aside from the cycles of conquest by foreign powers who become valid natives, is how nebulous the myths are

I apologize to that person for whatever trauma I caused you to transfer onto them.
