> Rocks are “wiped clean” of information every time they dissolve. Same with weather systems.
I won't go into why this isn't true (things are made of atoms and unless there's nuclear processes going on, those atoms stay the same).
But anyway, software evolves like rocks (even by your definition), not biological organisms - it can be changed each generation without defined constraints! It can revert changes that were made in previous generations! It can just sit around indefinitely and not change while still surviving! (IDK how to make this point more clear).
