Instance Specification Stratified Order-Evolutionary Advantage (Capra)
"From an evolutionary point of view it is easy to understand why stratified, or multileveled, systems are widespread in nature. They evolve much more rapidly and have much better chance of survival than nonstratified systems, because in cases of severe disturbances they can decompose into their various subsystems without being completely destroyed. Nonstratified systems, on the other hand, would totally disintegrate and would have to start evolving again from scratch. Since living things encounter many disturbances during their long history of evolution, nature has sensibly favored those which exhibit stratified order. As a matter of fact, there seem to be no records of the survival of any other.”
