I think there is an individual and a meta/society level. I think both me and GP were referring to the individual/micro level.

And I think the person you are responding to was acknowledging that evolution didn’t just stop…as long as there are babies there are mutations, and the environment will select for some qualities over others.

If you meant super micro, then the same can be said of your immune system / gut flora, though I’m not certain of the relevance.

The point is that “evolution” doesn’t magically direct to some better outcome, or even towards a more sustainable local maxima.
