probably not. I’m not exactly sure what you mean by this question since I don’t full understand hamilton’s rule but in general evolutionary stuff only needs to be close enough to correct rather than actually correct.
Losing information isn’t a crime. The virtues of simple models go beyond Occam’s razor. Often, replacing a complex world with a complex model barely counts as progress—since complex models are hard to use and hard to understand.
So: Hamilton’s rule is not being parsimonious “correctly”?
