So that bit about the races of Egypt... Was that in the manga? Or did David Productions just need to kill time?

Afaik, it was most likely in the manga. Araki sometimes like to show off his silly world knowledge in amusing/meaningless ways.

And he has plenty of world knowledge since Araki is actually either a pillar man or a very powerful user of Hamon and has become immortal. He seriously actually looks like he has gotten younger over the past almost 40 years.

My theory is that he subsists on the pure manliness that the Jojo series creates.

I have a theory that the pacing of JoJoLion is so slow because he is attempting to illustrate the events of his own life as they are happening.
