That and anti-vaxxers I'd say. At least the flat earth society is relatively harmless. Anti-vaxxers have literally cost people their lives by allowing outbreaks of preventable diseases to come back.

I recently came across a clip where you and another scientist (don't know her name) dissected the laryngeal nerve of a giraffe to show how evolution cannot have foresight as the nerve that links the brain and the voice box loops all the way down the neck around a main artery and back up the neck again.
I thought it was the most magnificent evidence for evolution over intelligent design I had ever seen, and so my question is are there any other examples like this in animals or humans where evolution has "made a mistake" so to speak and created a complicated solution for a simple problem?
Thanks for doing this AMA, I'm a big fan of your work in science education.
