    … a form of convergent evolution in which non-crab crustaceans evolve a crab-like body plan

    Applies to crustaceans only. :(

    So it’d be like talking about lifes “many attempts at making a cow” and showing a bunch of bull like animals with horns.

    Similar lifeforms, once put in a similar environment for a long period of time, tend to develop similar features.
