“One of the main problems with the theory of evolution is its tendency to assume that all changes in living beings, as they adapt to the environment, are necessarily beneficial in the long term – we make them evolve. In reality, living beings not only adapt, but also change in different ways. The essence lies in the understanding that changes are systemic - beings modify themselves internally (self-adaptation), in relation to other beings (heteroadaptation) and in response to environmental conditions and their changes (exoadaptation). It is important to recognize that a change that benefits one aspect of adaptation can harm another, leading to maladaptation that compromises the survival of the species. Therefore, instead of simply calling it the "Theory of Evolution", a more accurate name would be "Theory of Simultaneous Adaptive Change.”
