The fixation problem is not a problem for it being a fusion

The poker analogy was a response to @CrisprCAS9 who used this analogy. One event that has odds of 1billion to one is equivalent to 3 consecutive events with odds 1000 to one. Statistically 3 consecutive events can be equivalent to one single event.

Bill, these are not equivalent. This is why students studying probability first learn about permutation and combinations (basic combinatorics).
