Mother nature works in mysterious ways, but natural selection is efficient and necessary. Your lowly potato has stayed in its rudimentary form because it lacks the wherewithal to evolve beyond its simplicity.

Broccoli was chosen to rise above the other vegetables.

I said humble sweet potato not it's distant cousin the lowly potato. Sweet potatoes didn't need to be evolved as much because they are already a perfect vegetable.

Broccoli on the other hand is no more than a freak flower of a cabbage.
