what are structured models not good at capturing?

  • they do not capture change in environments over very long timescales due to evolution and innovation rewiring ecosystems

  • we cannot predict evolution due to historical contingency

  • eg. the evolution of lignin produced trees in the early carboniferous that couldn’t be broken down by detritivores

  • eg. the human brain was also a major evolutionary innovation that changed the course of history
