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.

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

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