That leaves huge margins of life that have escaped even the most bound-unit
analyses by science. When we affirm, or refute, percentages of physical fact
are missed.
Any model tells us general patterns, like exponential growth. Assumptions in
spite of margins of error—intrinsic growth or decay—were the fuel that gave
Thomas Malthus his most provocative expressions. Competition (whether in economics or primal geography, that is, territorial behavior, proxemics, and extraproxemics) were key to Darwin’s modeling. Proxemic spatial and psychological
distance modalities (e.g., social distancing) is one of the most crucial coefficients
because it encompasses the concept of biological density and all of the biometrics
that converge within the same spaces.

At that point, the modeling is oriented
toward simplistic r/K-selection theories (fundamental trade-offs between quantity
and quality of offspring) of population density questions of where, how many, and
so what.

We routinely ascribe to evolution and natural selection r/K assumptions.
But we have not reason to believe our belief systems. To do so is merely a convenient way to encapsulate a theory; the theory its myriad hypotheses which, in turn,
are nothing more than fragmentary compilations of anecdote and a modicum of
observations.
In spite of our negative proofs—nullity to the exponentially zero + power—we
are, in the end, allotted time, and choices. You can watch your hair grow longer,
week by week, examine every minute change of the seasons, so infinitely detailed

Or note the surest attunement to the slightest difference beyond
the Self, in the 14 meticulous volumes of Thoreau’s journals, whether describing
various states of Flint’s Pond, the world of nuts, the “fully expanded light-green
leaves” of a beech tree, thunder-showers, the “fox’s trail,” “the heroism of the
muskrat,” and so on infinitely.
