Our solution really has both klugey and elegant parts.

text: Once a structure or behavior arises as a product of mutation and is amplified as a result of natural selection, or a structure or behavior arises and is amplified by genetic drift, no matter how klugey, it is retained in a population. And if natural selection acts further to increase the frequency of the klugey solution, a population cannot simply scrap the solution for a less klugey approach. […] This doesn’t mean that things, once klugey, will always get klugier. But it does mean that'kluginess can beget even more kluginess, and this is more than likely what happened with brains, as exemplified by following the changes throughout the tree of life and especially in the vertebrate part of the tree of life.
