I agree with all but one point concerning evolution in the article, which is its dismissal of the evolution of the population. The example in extremis is the ant colony: a mutation in a drone may give no advantage to that individual drone, and possibly even a mild disadvantage, but if it creates a sufficiently better adapted (non-reproducing!) worker, then that mutation is more likely to propagate than the absence of the mutation because of its advantage to the population as a whole. I extrapolate that, though it may not be the primary mechanism of adaptation, it nonetheless is a possible mechanism in any social species, from coral to human.
