- Evolution is seen as a highly path-dependent process due to its historical nature, but outcomes could have varied.
- Convergence and constraints significantly limit evolutionary designs, suggesting that not all possibilities are realized.
- Fundamental constraints are inherent in the logic of living matter, influencing evolutionary outcomes.
- Examples of constraints include thermodynamics in living systems, linear molecular information, cellular composition, multicellularity, cognitive system computations, and ecosystem architecture.
- The study provides evidence for these constraints and proposes pathways for a defined theoretical framework.
