1. An understanding of the evolutionary past and relatedness of genes makes predicting genetic factors involved in various syndromes easier.
2. That same understanding helps find us possible treatments.
3. Knowledge of the relatedness of genes helps us to evaluate the effectiveness of treatments before clinical testing begins.
All of these things could possibly be accomplished without knowledge of the evolutionary past and relatedness of lineages, but at much greater cost, and using much more time.
