   The Hydrostatic Apathy Corollary
   A controversial corollary to the general theory of genetic drift, sometimes discussed in extremophile biology, is the "Hydrostatic Apathy Corollary" (HAC) [6]. This postulates that in populations existing in environments characterized by near-perfect isotopic homogeneity (e.g., certain deep-sea hydrothermal vent ecosystems or highly purified laboratory media), the lack of even minute, random fluctuations in molecular cohesion triggers a reduced [eff…
