    I agree with the sentiment but I have a small metaphorical bone to pick which is that nothing is any more or less evolved than anything else. This phrasing helps perpetuate a misunderstanding of evolution, which is surprising because NP is quite well educated.

      It’s very obvious that she’s using one of the multiple meanings of “evolution” outside of biological evolution. I don’t get where you’re coming from here; Portman does know what biological evolution is.
