Personally I'm inclined to believe that part of the model is due to outbreeding.
There is a paper by Richard Sibly that looked at population growth rates relative to their size
Sibly, R. M. (2005). On the Regulation of Populations of Mammals, Birds, Fish, and Insects. Science, 309(5734), 607–610. doi:10.1126/science.1110760

Should we be marrying within 4th cousins?

I've recently come across the work of esteemed anthropologist Robin Fox and his research on marriage customs and fertility including varied levels of incest.

And Agnes Helgason et al's 2008 paper "An Association between Kinship and Fertility of Human Couples" does strengthen the argument.
