A welcome addition to the idea that there is a fundamental dilemma that all things are constrained by between the pillars of #Resiliency & #Efficiency.

It plays out inversely in the forms taken up in Time and/or Space.

Developmental plasticity ensures variation, which is a key to evolution.

ASD is already an exception in this area & not a good baseline for this. It's not a single gene, but also does not usually express in adulthood like most.

See: www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/books/NBK624...
& /NBK20363 on variation.

Genes being inheritable is not the issue in contention. It's about polygenic, multifactorial expression. People w/the same genes still express differences. Some phenotypes arise w/o any genetic changes. It's not binary "on/off."

Being susceptible to enviro comes from ancestor experience; adaptive.

Yeah, I was going to comment that you can't define time (in the positive sense) without contradiction either, it's inherent.

The old argument still fails..

I think the point is that traits are what's being measured, and those are a combinatorial consequence of both.

The enviro already also played a role upstream, altering parents' genes, so "prior" loses it's usual linear relevance. The dominant role each plays seems to cycle back & forth.

I dunno, I feel like "duck-billed" as an adjective really livens it up.

It's revealing that the reductionist-led methodology of physics leads directly to the question "Why individuals cooperate.." regarding their subsequent goal of spreading their genes, when that goal is a species-wide directive.

We can also thank the patriarchy for that narrative. 👑

#O/M

So are markets, for exactly the same reason.

The first thing humans do when entering/creating a new group is establish the ground rules for behavior & actions.

I was inadvertently racing myself with these two:

The Rise and Fall of British Emergentism, BRIAN P. MCLAUGHLIN
&
THE LAST WORD ON EMERGENCE, John Heil

I'm just glad the latter is the most recent. Won't need to read more after that...

(PS, the all caps are curtesy of publishers also competing?)

The trilemma is a great visual & explanatory device where it fits.

It is something that everyone should be aware of, ie taught in school critical thinking class, etc.

Gotta luv a typo in a literacy post.
👍

It was not meant to clarify, it showed the incompleteness of the narrative model that claimed you could combine such logical opposites. [dead AND alive, not OR]

It forced the retreat of the believers into a probabilistic corner which they are still stuck in.

Yeah, that would be a huge leap.

If that quote was related to your OP, I missed it before.
