>I don't see why it's a paradox. Lots of things would offer fitness - why can't all animals talk? Why can't plants move? Surely these things would offer greater Darwinian fitness.
this is why we have live organisms that able to move - it is called animals, and we have animals that can talk, and we'll possibly have [some milleniums later] animals that are able to efficiently transfer memory through DNA (possibly after these animals become able to calculate and select what memories they'd like to encode into their own DNAs and what of these memories they want to transfer to the offsprings)... Evolution isn't finished as of today, it is possibly only starting :)
