Micro-changes to DNA over millions of years = the 2% genetic and 6% genomic difference between humans and chimps = “macro” evolutionary change.
Pretty simple really.

Shhhhhh... you're speaking from a position of logic and education. Danger! Danger! Danger!
I'd continue, but my appendix is aching. And I strained my both my palmaris and subclavius yesterday!

Micro-changes to DNA over millions of years = the 2% genetic and 6% genomic difference between humans and chimps = macro evolutionary change. And you're trotting out those figures after they have been widely discredited, and the differences are found mostly in non-coding regions or "junk DNA" that turns out to be a lot more important than we originally thought.
In the end, if you compare the 1.5% of the DNA that codes directly to proteins, you can get the 2% difference that you state. So 98% of 1.5% of human and chimp DNA are the same, or 1.47%. Not very impressive.
No one argues that humans have wildly different proteins in our species than in chimpanzees, but the most important part, the blueprints--the control code of our DNA is vastly different.

And this is testable, observable and repeatable, how?
