Summary: The cover art refutes the pseudoscientific nonsense in “Nature” about how the reproduction and growth strategies of modern mammals evolved.
Warning: Pseudoscientists sometimes use profanity to make a point that they know nothing about anything known to serious scientists.

Simply put, forget the math. Link the creation of quantized energy from light-activated microRNA biogenesis to biophysically constrained viral latency and ecological adaptations in species from microbes to humans as if you were a serious scientist who understood that feedback loops must be linked from the physiology of reproduction to sympatric speciation.

Jurassic stem-mammal perinates and the origin of mammalian reproduction and growth
The association of a high number of offspring and largely isometric cranial growth in Kayentatherium is consistent with a scenario in which encephalization—and attendant shifts in metabolism and development7,8—drove later changes to mammalian reproduction.
Caption: Specimens dating back 184 million years shine a light on how the reproduction and growth strategies of modern mammals evolved.
In the week before Schrödinger at 75 – The Future of Biology – September 2018 “Science” pits the energy-dependent biophysically constrained feedback loops in the Mobius strip against the claims in “Nature” about specimens dating back 184 million years. No experimental evidence of biophysically constrained feedback loops can be linked to theories about how modern mammals evolved. After you abandon the ridiculous mathematical models, see also:
Watch this to the end and you will hear them politely refer to Neil deGrasse Tyson as a big ass (i.e., in context, a bass)

It is intriguing that similar considerations of environment and contingency are now seen to be central in quantum mechanics, with its ideas of entanglement, decoherence and contextuality. Whether this is more than coincidence, we can’t yet say.

James V. Kohl detailedl how quantized energy-dependent microRNA biogenesis links the pheromone-controlled physiology of reproduction to biophysically constrained viral latency and healthy longevity. Links from what organisms eat to the enzyme-dependent metabolism of food also link metabolic networks to microRNA-mediated genetic networks in the context of RNA interference. Drug therapies alter RNA interference by altering cell type differentiation in all cells of all individuals of all species. For comparison, during the past 26 years, Kohl has detailed how the chemistry of protein folding is biophysically constrained at every level of biological organization by conserved molecular mechanisms.
