Good and fair reply. However:
OK. Your other beefs, however, are merely incorrect.
"inbred" is precisely what the family is; that's how the different genes wind up expressing themselves.
"devolution", if it really is a word, is the take of the researchers:
devolution
noun [u]
the moving of power or responsibility from a main organization to a lower level, or from a central government to a regional government.
(I should know, I live in a devolved country, it deosn't mean we evolved backwards, no matter what people say! ;-))
the opposite of evolution if it did exist would be de-evolution, or, as it actually is: regression "to return to a previous and less advanced or worse state, condition or way of behaving."
not that I want to be pedantic or anything;-)
