“You read text and phrase like this: “Home Sapiens “suddenly appeared” 400,000 years ago in Africa. Well suddenly appears seems like a creative event to me. Step functions imply creation, analog functions imply evolution.”
Imprecise vernacular used by journalists and anthroplogists prove nothing. Species also migrate from one location to another, it doesnt mean they were created there.
Look at humans: I think it goes like this homo-halibus->homo-erectus->homo-sapien. That is not a smooth transition. I will use a car analogy. The three human species are like the '55,'56 and '57 Chevy. These are distinct models. There are no 55 1/2 Chevys with a blended design incorporating some features of the '56 model year. Now the cars may share the same sealed beam headlight assembly, the eye equivalent in humans, but that does not mean they are not distinct and different designs. You cannot swap a fender from a '56 Chevy with a '57.
To my knowledge there are no homo-erectus/homo sapien cross breed transitional fossils. Same with every species in the chain of human development.
This is my observation a trained engineer.
