if every organism from the dawn of time had generated, by random mutation, one new base sequence in the sequence space of interest, that would amount to only one 10 trillion, trillion, trillionth of the sequences in that space—the space that needs to be searched.And, since conditional probability of a new gene arising in the manner envisioned by the classical model turns out to be almost unimaginably less than ½, the classical model turns out to be vastly more likely to be false than true.
