My guess is that devolution is something used by pseudoscience.

Or maybe it's some archaic term?

‘Devolution’ is a perfectly acceptable word, it just doesn’t apply to evolutionary biology. It’s most often used in governments when certain powers and abilities are moved from a national level to a provincial level. Essentially, this is what happened when Northern Ireland was permitted to form its own parliament - some power and authority was ‘devolved’ from Westminster to Belfast.
