depends on what kind of stress. simple problem solving stress could benefit from a quiet environment to think.
life or death stress on the other hand, one would have the opposite reaction such as calling for aid or general pack defense.

Being alone minimizes the eventual possible fallout of stress. At max you hurt yourself or your surroundings but never others which is useful in various circumstances.

Men have big egos, which have an inverse relationship of size/fragility. When stressed, the ego is threatened. Relationships are unclear.

Sorry, that piece of Friedrich Nietzsche can not be translated without losing some of its actual meaning, because of his word play on German "gemein" which can mean "mean" (lowly/unkind) and/or "common"

Nietzsche about SOLITUDE:

Beyond Good and Evil
Prelude to a Philosophy of the Future.
1886.

What is Noble?


To live with tremendous and proud composure; always beyond—. To have and have not one's affects, one's pro and con, at will; to condescend to them, for a few hours; to seat oneself on them as on a horse, often as on an ass—for one must know how to make use of their stupidity as much as of their fire. To reserve one's three hundred foregrounds; also the dark glasses; for there are cases when nobody may look into our eyes, still less into our "grounds." And to choose for company that impish and cheerful vice, courtesy. And to remain master of one's four virtues: of courage, insight, sympathy, and SOLITUDE. For SOLITUDE is a virtue for us, as a sublime bent and urge for cleanliness which guesses how all contact between man and man—"in society"—involves inevitable uncleanliness. All community makes men somehow, somewhere, sometime—"common."

Your picture implies it's specifically a male problem, and not something that all members of the human race are prone to.

Another phrase to add to your filters, "evolutionary advantage"
