Were the first settlers of Mehrgarh unsophisticated?

The aceramic phase, Period 1A, leads one to believe that the first
settlers were relatively unsophisticated.

However, their competence as builders contradicts this view.

A Plan of Compartmented buildings at Mehrgarh was given Rao (1991).

The compartmented structures clearly had a function and were built
according to some sort of protocol. Such a protocol must, logically,
have antedated the foundation of Mehrgarh in order to feature in
an already developed in the oldest habitation layers there.

More could be said about the well-made mud bricks.
