You say: "We can get insight into this process by observing recent

If you want an example from DNA-based evolution, consider the
case of marsupials in South America. [...]
Has nothing to do with technological evolution; you miss the point
repeatedly. marsupials are autopoietic organisms and evolution per se
deals with such. Not so tech evo.
To recap, you criticised me for providing examples of technological
evolution to illustrate an issue that arose from a discussion
of DNA-based evolution.

After I provided examples of DNA-based evolution that illustrate
the same point, I did not expect to then be criticised for
not providing examples from technological evolution.

I guess you missed the point then.  No problem. Ty again:  I already
said that there are similarities *in mechanism *types* (like mutation
etc.), but there are also differences.

Sure.  That is obvious, and I never claimed otherwise.

OK - well then NP!
