What’s your point? Unfertilized eggs don’t hatch, so they’re not part of the scenario in question.

    What's your point? Literal, and wrong, quote from you....

    The [unfertilized] egg is already the new offspring.

    when it’s fertilized.

    You seem to have missed that part.

    No, but the fallacy is in thinking the new species appears when the egg hatches, rather than when it’s fertilized. The egg is already the new offspring.

    This is completely incorrect. Only a fertilized egg can create offspring. But that is not what they said.
