Oh, I know it's intended that way.
But the kind of jokes a person makes reveal much about their character and their beliefs.
There are all sorts of variants on broccoli and cauliflower. They grow a very different variant in Europe.
The Italian variant tastes much better.
since then polyploidy and hybridization have made the whole genus incredibly complex
Well the remarkable thing is that it is not incredibly complex - it is reducible to just three closely related genotypes and is therefore rather incomplex genetically while seemingly very complex phenotypically.
All this variety is not due to radical mutations creating utterly disparate genotypes - but to hybridization of just three types.
Well, the Darwin fish is funny, and clever, and irreverent...

No, it's descended from three genotypes. I have no idea what 'reducible' means in this context. Polyploidy does remarkable things to plants, something stoners realized a long time ago.
Heck, look at dogs. There you have Chihuahuas and great Danes descended from one or maybe two species, even without polyploidy.
