The questions listed above are some of the most important unsolved problems known to humanity, which have long been overdue.
Perhaps not many people are willing to spend their precious time trying to solve them. It might be caused by mediocre mindset. They think if they can solve those problems, someone else smarter than them who are more familiar with the problems must have solved them first, so why bother? Thus, solving those problems requires us to first overcome that mediocre mindset barrier. Only then we are willing to spend our time and effort to look for the solutions.
Some other people are not interested in the problems because they don't think that they have direct impact to their lives, so they just do their business as usual. Those thoughts must have reduced the number of potential solvers.
