摘要翻译：
生物学理论化的一个趋势是通过达尔文和华莱士的变异和选择来制定高于或等于进化的原则。在这封信中，我分析了最近的一个这样的提议，它为发展优势做了这样的提议。我表明，尽管发展优势的思想是辉煌的，但这在生物学理论的层次结构中是错误的，很容易产生混乱。另外几个例子也在添加的说明中简要讨论。

英文摘要：
  A tendency in biological theorizing is to formulate principles above or equal to Evolution by Variation and Selection of Darwin and Wallace. In this letter I analyze one such recent proposal which did so for the developmental ascendency. I show that though the idea of developmental ascendency is brilliant, this is in wrong order in the hierarchical structure of biological theories and can easily generate confusing. Several other examples are also briefly discussed in the note added.
