Original Note:
Blue eyes are not a “biological fluke”. OP may be referring to headlines about how blue eyes originated as a single gene mutation. However, all genes are created this way. From Nature: “Every genetic feature in every organism was, initially, the result of a mutation” https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2008/01/080130170343.htm https://www.nature.com/scitable/knowledge/library/mutations-are-the-raw-materials-of-evolution-17395346/#:~:text=Every%20genetic%20feature%20in%20every,a%20defining%20aspect%20of%20evolution.
