Don't forget that they only live 1-2 years. 3 tops. I think this is even more limiting than fire. And if evolutionary pressure leads to longer lifespans somehow, they must overcome the whole dying after mating thing.

True, also they do not raise offspring which means zero communication of non-instinctive knowledge between generations.
