Imitation both unconscious and conscious is par excellence the educational method of the family. It is plain that a considerable part of the adaptation of living beings to their environment, i.e., of beings that are born plastic, is passed on from generation to generation through imitation.

Consequently there would be little chance for the novel adaptation, the propitious individual variation, that constitutes progress.

There is no condition that you cannot modify into something more, any more than there is any painting that you can paint and not like and just paint over it again.
