These ideas are maybe the most difficult in biology, and it seems that lots of students and even some PIs don't grapple with them at all. Even when we do "get it", it's so easy to slip into the wrong mode of thinking. You are doing a really good service with these posts (and that paper…).

Our ancestors branched from The Main Line several million years ago, but long after the fishes branched off. Everyone knows that The Main Line is the series of species that leads to house cats.
