No biggy; from what Bram said, I underestimated how well you were understood anyway.

So maybe it wasn't perfect, but it got the job done. In the end, this may just be another great illustration of a fact well known and loathed by lawyers, scientists and other metaphysicians (a word I incidentally still dislike, if you're reading this, Dan
): Things we can PROVE are only a subset of the much larger group of things we KNOW. God's not dead, but the Great Watchmaker died a long time ago with Schrödingers Cat.

All tautologies are truisms, but not all truisms are tautologies.

Then it is still a tautology

You can know it's beneifical to a particular individual, but it's harder to say for populations.

I'm more inclined toward his logic, but possibly toward your conclusions.

we can't really know ahead of time what makes a specific trait benefical in that environment

Did you perhaps mean "beneficial in the environment" rather than "beneficial to the environment"?

yes. I did not really phrase that very clearly. *NM*

100% I think Moriaine is a very beneficial trait that contributes a lot to the RAFO pool
