Thank you, this was really interesting. I was trying to look up more information on "stabilimorphs" but google pulls up nothing on the term. I'm wondering what causes them to continue mutating in such a stable way. Are they simply that well adapted that they've fallen into a stable configuration that has no instability in any of the many dimensions available or is there something else that is maintaining their physical configuration while mutations continue to occur?
