Random mutations are the least potent source of change in evolutionary mechanisms. So much so that some experts don’t even consider them as one.
Reinforcement of already existing traits through variation between individuals under environmental preasure is the main mechanism. (i.e. when food sources are high, individuals with longest reach are the fittest).
I want Darwin Claus to bring me random mutations that may or may not be beneficial to my survival and my capacity to create offspring.

And the longest reach comes from… random mutation?
How to say that you didn’t read Lamarck without saying that you didn’t read Lamarck. Even Darwin agreed with him.
