No, if you say "positive selection" ur the Anti Neil (if u can dress urself ur anti Niel). Pure Darwin is deselecting unsuccessful traits next go round. "Positive" selection is leapfroging over trait 4 b.c. it's too similar to 3...at least thats what Kanye said.

I'm interested in your opinions on Carl Woese's "A new biology for a new century." Microbiol Mol Biol Rev. 2004 Jun;68(2):173-86. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/15187180 Particularly Freeman Dyson's suggestion that we are entering "the end of the Darwinian interlude."

Does evolution work fastest in small / isolated populations?
