I like Ham. Against pressure and Insult he built a massive organization to propagate Creation. If I remember correctly he does believe in a “micro evolution” meaning some variation because of what is already in the genome. Its Macro Evolution And the idea that every beginning has to start way way way back. Billionation of things to excuse the lack of actual science behind just about everything.
I thought he should have been nicer. In a way you proved several points he has made in the past in his videos. Evolution is not proven in the fossil record. Extinction is. Your work proves it. Rather than several species and millions of intermediate species, there is possibly none and what seems to be a intermediate may not be and there ends up being a bottle neck.
he has always said there was a bottle neck at the global flood. I would have thought he would have been more agreeable.
One glaring problem is that all this has to happen above the KT boundary. counting skulls. I don’t think we have enough to patch a evolutionary chain with that physical data. So you are both right.
Edit: And it might take some time but we could get the results by collecting data from around the world like this below to see the gradual evolution of humans to some sort of pinch point.

The formation locally is divided into eight informal lithologic units. Mollusks, charophytes, and ostracods are common in all of the local units except one. Vertebrates have been recovered from one unit and include crocodilians, fish, anurans, lizards, and mammals. The vertebrate specimens were transported fluvially and size sorted so that only very small specimens

Maybe some Scientist did all that work and created the data for us to review the history of evolution in real world terms in the actual fossil records. IF I find anyone with it I will bring it to add to the the evidence.
