So since you take account of beneficial being destroyed *within*
natural selection, then I can say that natural selection results in
individual beneficial variants being destroyed, as well as extinction
of beneficial, when the chance of reproduction doesn't turn out the way
it is more likely to turn out?
Oh wait no, chances of reproduction may not actually turn out against
the fittest in natural selection, because the fittest have a special
superduper value-laden infused chance of reproduction.
You have no argument.......
That you emphasize *when* must mean that you go looking after the fact
to attribute a name to the occurrence, and if the outcome is the way
*you like it to be* then you call it natural selection. But if the
chances did not turn out the way you liked, then there was no natural
selection.
Yep.... that's the way of the Darwinist, stunning....
