6. The evolutionary tree, or even a family tree is better understood as a vast tapestry

A tapestry woven in time from the knowledge of countless lives, desires, choices, actions, reactivity, names, stories, memories, egos.

It is a magic tapestry whose unseen back and unknown edges are never reached by one walking the weaving of this mystical Mobius.
