This is fundamental to Chaos theory (how small initial states can lead to rich systems that contain both expected and unexpected outcomes), which isn't a theory as much as an area of mathematical modeling of the most complex systems. Me waving off a butterfly is just as likely to influence a hurricane as the unmolested butterfly flapping. Any given reader's brain existing to comprehend this comment is highly unlikely, yet it occurs and continues within layers of chaotic systems, that exist turbulently, in perceived reality.
