## 1. The substance ladder

Biology in flove is the field that climbs the substance ladder from
particle to organism, with each step doubling as a sub-field of biology:

| Substance | Sub-field |
|---|---|
| Particle | (Bio)Physics |
| Atom | (Bio)Chemistry |
| Molecule | Molecular Biology |
| Macromolecule | … |
| Protoplasm | (Evo)Microbiology |
| Cell | (Evo)Biology |
| Tissue | (Evo)Devo Biology |
| Organ | (Evo)Physiology |
| System | (Evo)Anatomy |
| Organism | Confluentism (organism level) |

The ladder is **inEvolutionary** — every layer evolves *and* involves
its predecessor. New layers do not replace old ones; they fold them
in.

> *"Matter evolves new layers when ancestor ones (in)evolve along
> them."* — Slides §BIOLOGY

## 2. InEvolution — the master move

Flove's signature biological concept is **InEvolution**: evolution
considered together with its inverse involution.

- As macro-organism complexity grows (cell → organism → society),
  the micro it is built from gets **more dissipated, less concentrated**.
- Conversely, the micro of any layer is the *concentrated* trace of
  its more-evolved past tries.
- Embryonic recapitulation is read as concentration of past species
  experience; adult life is its dissipation.

> *"My past unfulfilled wishes / dreams / imagine — recapitulation:
> embryo concentrated, adult dissipated."*

InEvolution implies that **innovation happens by re-fining old material**,
not by jumping to clean novelty. Failed past attempts (too short,
too adventurous) sit waiting in the genome to be re-tried under
better conditions.

## 3. Cells in InEvolution — the sperm/egg bipole

The deck spends a long sequence on **gametes**:

```
            EGG (concentrated, biggest)        SPERM (dissipated, smallest)
OSTRICH     huge                                 normal
HUMAN       big                                  small
MOUSE       small                                small
FRUIT FLY   smallest                             biggest (!?)
```

Reading: in fruit flies, sperm became the *concentrated* pole because
of competition on a narrow female tract. The same bipolar pair
(EGG–SPERM) inverts depending on the macro environment. This is
flove's exemplar of inEvolution at cell level.

The general rule: the **biggest of one** matches **the smallest of the
other** in the same lineage; the *simplexity* point is where they meet.

## 4. Fitness Indicators Cycle

Flove proposes a single 4-axis fitness indicator cycle, not the usual
many separate ones. The four axes:

```
                      QUALTITY
                       (qual + quantity)
                          |
         MATRIFOCALITY ---+--- PATRILATERALITY
                          |
                       SIGNALING
                          |
                        SPAN
```

- **Span** — life span × fertile-age span × regularity × locality.
- **Signaling** — sex signaling, availability, zygote.
- **Matrifocality** — prenatal lust, postnatal love, *coincidentalya*.
- **Patrilaterality** — patrilineal protection, patrilocal provision.

Each axis has **bias** vs **indicator**. Flove insists matrifocal and
patrilateral are *bipolar complements*, not stages — every organism
exhibits both, and culture pathologises them when one is suppressed.

## 5. Spans — Life and Fertility

The slides plot life-span and fertile-age span across the substance
ladder:

```
Particle   Embryo  Birth  Adult  Death
   …         (concentrated)  (dissipated)
                ↓          ↓
              short        long
              long         short
```

The "Maximum life spans" graph proposes that the **longest spans appear
at the simplexity point** — where micro-concentration and
macro-dissipation balance. Microbes have long spans by being concentrated
forever; humans by being macro-dissipated; the pathology is at either
extreme.

## 6. Senxuality, Reproduction, Dimorphism

`FeminaFinaFatal25.10.odt` (11,023 lines, the longest evopsychology
source) is mostly about sexual dimorphism and senxuality — flove's
preferred spelling that fuses "sex" + "sensual." Its core claims, in
condensed form:

1. **Dimorphism is the macroscopic yinyang.** Wen-Ran Zhang's bipolar
   logic stops at the micro; flove extends it to all macroscopic sex
   differentiation — including human cognition, social roles, art.
2. **Matri- vs Patri- as bipolar complements.** Matrifocal = inner,
   prenatal, lust → love continuum. Patrilateral = outer, protective,
   provisional. Both are needed, both are corrupted when one is bullied.
3. **Hypergamy and patrilocal provision** are read as *adaptations*
   (not ideologies) — flove's contribution is to fit them on the
   bipolar fitness lattice rather than treat them as moral facts.
4. **Pathologies** — narcissism, hybristophilia, pedophilia, sadism,
   masochism are placed on the same lattice as deviations from the
   confluentist optimum, not as discrete diseases. (See
   `papers/4_psicosocial.md` for the full taxonomy.)

## 7. Zygot, Birth, Death — the experience scale

Flove's most poetic biological proposal:

> Zygot, Birth, Death are *one experience scale at three resolutions*:
>
> ```
>     NOTHING        SOMETHING        EVERYTHING
>       0              1                 ∞
>     GENESIS       EXPERIENCE          END
>       …                                …
>     ZYGOT          BIRTH             DEATH
>     (particle:    (particle:        (particle:
>      genesis)      collapse)         decay)
> ```

> *"Many Lifes Interpretation: every death pumps on the Great Attractor."*

This is flove's bipolar reading of "many-worlds": each death is an
incentive structure that re-influences earlier zygots. Time is
read as a fractal of the same 0→1→∞ pattern.

## 8. Death (211DEATH) — DieSafe and the legacy plan

The `211DEATH/` folder feeds the **DieSafe** demo: a voice-and-legacy
plan for end-of-life. Theoretical claims:

- Death is *not* a rupture; it is a phase change in concentration.
- The "voice & legacy" left behind is the *macro-dissipated* trace of
  the *micro-concentrated* zygot's career.
- Cultural rituals around death are evaluated by whether they preserve
  or break the inEvolutionary loop (recapitulation through descendants
  + traces).

## 9. Microbes, immune system, and the inverse perception

A specific claim from the deck:

> *Microbes (and more micro organisms) perceive the micro more, despite
> being lesser-evolved organisms. So they are more present in our
> immune system (our more micro [involuted] system) — while we see
> them less because our macro is more present.*

The immune system is therefore the body's **archaic micro-perceptual
organ**. Allergies, autoimmunities, etc., are misalignments between the
modern macro and the immune-system micro. This frames microbiome
research as *paleo-perception* recovery.

## 10. One-line operational rule

> **Read any biological phenomenon as a confluence of micro/macro and
> matri/patri bipoles, then locate its simplexity point.** Pathology is
> distance from that point; health is dynamic balance, not fixed
> equilibrium.
