> Its large brain and sophisticated nervous system, camera-like eyes, flexible bodies, instantaneous camouflage via the ability to switch color and shape are just a few of the striking features that appear suddenly on the evolutionary scene Argument from incredulity. > The genome of the Octopus shows a staggering level of complexity with 33,000 protein-coding genes more than is present in Homo sapiens. Red herring. > this “great leap forward” in complexity was due to “cryopreserved squid and/or octopus eggs” crashing into the ocean on comets millions of years ago No evidence provided to support this claim. In addition, Cephalopoda is a very well documented clade. Meaning we have fossilized evidence the octopuses originated and developed on this planet. > crashing into the ocean on comets millions of years ago. Probabilistic fallacy. Interstellar objects in our solar system are rare (only one ever documented). Comets seeded with eggs have never been documented and should be considered exceedingly rare. The number of comets that ever make contact with Earth is very, very low.
