1 & 2: the earth’s diameter(and mass) has remain unchanged since the formation of the moon (caused by a collision with massive object roughly the size of mars). Erosion moves material from one place to another. it’s not as if all the dirt and rocks in the grand canyon just dissappeared as the water passed through.
3: nuclear fusion created the elements that comprise this planet and all others. they are released from the cores of stars when they go supernova.
4: old models don’t necessarily need to disappear for new ones to propagate. new traits that enhance survival or reproductive success do not take away from the previous species’ ability to reproduce, nor does it necessarily mean that it creates a new competitor for resources.
