"The simplest interpretation is that life is always evolving," said Stoeckle.
We all know that. We all believe in adaption aka microevolution. Anyway, looks like one species turning into an entirely different species is going down the tubes.
So, no, you didn't actually read the paper you're quoting.

There is irony but also grandeur in this view that, precisely because they have no phenotype, synonymous codon variations in mitochondria reveal the structure of species and the mechanism of speciation. The vista of evolution is best seen from the passenger seat.
Congratulations, you finally beat somebody in an argument. Yourself. You win!
