(from the perspective of Summa Metaphysica)
According to my reading of natural evolution, random genetic mutations provide a ‘menu’ for Quest-for-Potential∞ to “review†– and then select from – or “lock-in on†– a new ‘genetic line’ most likely to achieve optimal potential (which includes survival)…and then transpose the genetic change across the entire species, and possibly beyond that.
This ‘reading of the data’ would harmonize “punctuated equilibrium†nicely into an integrated theory.
This ‘reading of the data†through my lens of “Quest for Potential / Extraordinariation†would explain why we end up with thousands of species of (dainty and beautiful) butterflies – and not billions of species of (ultimate survivor) slugs.
