You may be familiar with the saying “The best is the enemy of the good” (Voltaire), or “Perfection is the enemy of progress” (Churchill). It sounds counterintuitive. Most of us tend to associate the better performing with the more perfect. Is the saying true? This is a question of physics. I predict in simple terms the ‘enemy' relationship between performance and perfection (access to movement, space, and time). It is natural. Everywhere we see it, in vascular designs, human movement (life) in the city, animal design, athletics evolution, business, and diversity on the globe and in universities. From cause to effect, nature ‘happens' in this direction, not the other way around:
Freedom to change → evolution → performance (access) → diversity.
