A social scientist reviews the results of the public good game experiment in Chengdu and claims: 'This case proves that any initial burst of cooperative behavior is fundamentally fragile and will inevitably begin to decay almost immediately in repeated interactions.' Based on the specific contribution pattern observed in Chengdu, critically evaluate this statement. Is the scientist's conclusion fully supported by the evidence from that city?
