That link does not list any pre-Cambrian invertebrates at all.

“ What are the pre-Cambrian invertebrate species?”

See here:

It mentions Edicarian fauna, which were present in the Precambrian.

So you agree there is no evidence of preCambrian invertebrates.

That tells us locations where they were supposed to have been found. Do you know what any of them are?

Uh, no. I guess English is a second language for you? Edicarian fauna was live and invertebrate.

As someone has already pointed out, according to that, it’s unclear if they were animal forms.

but instead is more like mutation with selection mediated by the environment

We are all basically a Sperm and Egg combined. Materially containing the Hardware we can observe and also the Software we cannot.

Could our Software be affected by feedback from our body experiences, or input from the outside (creator or devil) in dreams etc.

Can there be Software floating around the universe but we don't have the tools to observe it?

Does our Sperm/Software have a brain with information passed onto it enables it to update itself?

Just all thoughts, nothing more.

Sexual reproduction is an error correction scheme similar to tcp/ip.

That link discusses “Punctuated Equilibria”, one of the MANY ad hoc adjustments to the theory. It is understood that a theory that must make ad hoc adjustments is pseudo science. The more ad hoc adjustments, the more pseudo it is.

It also discusses the basic unsolved logical problem, i.e. the many massive changes to get from one species to another which has a completely different set of functional systems, using bird evolution as an example. Even if it was actually possible for the new systems to evolve individually, which has never been demonstrated, none of them do any good until they are all together. Those individual changes, the evolution of which have not been demonstrated, would have de-evolved while waiting for all the other things to appear.

Evos try to get around this problem by theorizing in their usual ad hoc way, and with zero evidence, that all those individual things could have TEMPORARILY served some OTHER (totally unknown!) purpose while they were waiting for the other new systems to appear, until everything was magically in place. LOL!
