Begging to differ, I thought VVN had reservations about evolutionary
theory (as understood by him) based on his scientific study of mimicry
and his concrete observations that it goes farther than natural selection
alone should be able to make it go. That is, the details composing
mimetic features were much finer that predators could observe or needed
to.
