You can’t be serious about Gould’s analysis as a model. It might be worthwhile to pause and ask yourself why Gould was one of the most respected evolutionary biologists of his generation and then a bit on the well-established difference between analogous (functionally similar) and homologous (genetically linked) features. The distinction is drawn because there is no one-to-one correspondence, and just-so stories are no substitute for detailed analysis of mechanisms. bq.
