That's what I was thinking as well. The human emotions were also present in the Martians, with the martian husband, who was jealous his wife talked about the humans all the time as exotic, more interesting than he was to her. Other stories like thinking the humans were psychotic, when they knocked on the door and were surprised no one cared that they came from earth. Lol I probably would have done the same, if a Martian knocked on my door.

I thought Bradbury held up a mirror at times.
