Success to the successful archetype represents two reinforcing structures which may be in a delicate balance though as soon as one gains a small advantage the resource allocation favors the more successful and the result is then rapidly skewed in the direction of the more successful. See also
Archetypes.

System Modeling 5: Gene Regulation Instructions
copied from: Gene Bellinger (Shifting the Burden Archetype | Insight Maker)
A shifting the burden structure occurs when there are different ways to address a situation. With one approach being easier, faster, and requiring fewer resources, which do you think gets pursued? The problem is that taking the easier path ensures one will have to take the easier path repeatedly, and makes it harder to pursue the long-term better solution. See also
Archetypes.

Causal loop diagram illustrating how evolution, in the form of small incremental change (realized through random genetic mutation) paired with natural selection, serves to evolve species.
Additionally, the diagram illustrates the countering effects of genetic drift, which serves to reduce genetic variation by eliminating beneficial genes.
Evolutionary Change (2-Loop)
The limits to growth structure is based on the basic growth structure. And, as should be obvious, nothing grows forever as growth requires resources. Those required resources become a limits to growth.
