If we look at how the brain evolved we can compare it to how Conservatism evolved. The brain is a collection of spare parts, (see Kluges.) Evolution tinkers with what is already there. So does Conservatism. In evolution it is not so much the “survival of the fittest” as the “fittest of the available options.” Evolution and Conservatism work with what they have, they can't really step back and ask what is the very best option. The best option is the Conservative option.
