Evolutionary algorithms may also let you evolve the architecture. Think of a fly brain evolving into a human brain using the same genetic toolbox. With learning algorithms your assuming a fixed architecture. Hard to think how we’d get open ended evolutionary AI without evolutionary algorithms. At that point learning algorithms is the context dependent optimization step after neurogenesis.

The terms you are using are too vague, and seem disconnected from the reality of these algorithms.
How do evolutionary algorithms let you evolve the architecture? You define a model space, and explore it stochastically (with different evolutionary strategies). The model space you are exploring is linked to a specific architecture.
Regardless, there's also efforts in Deep Learning to automatically learn optimal network architectures ("AutoML").
