Yeah well genetic drift is a feature of evolution too and neutral alleles may oscillate in frequency to elimination or fixation. Selection hasn’t eliminated pseudogenes. We still have baggage from our egg yolking ancestors and most of our genome is junk. Only a small area is coding genes or non-coding regulatory regions. Instead of eliminating redundancy selection co-opts from it by functional shifting. There have been genome wide duplications and smaller instances of gene duplication that bring redundancy and freedom for selection to tinker and cobble. Some gene duplications will go on to evolve novel functions while others will degenerate into pseudogene junk. As junk it isn’t “purified” out of the genome.

None of this bodes well for simplistic cosmological analogies except maybe to sex up a theory with fancy talk.

The universe as “we” know it or as big bangers want to know it?

An interesting and powerful premise.
