Genetics.
Baseline theory is that natural selection should've done something to even the commoners during Fourthy Bleedin' Thousands of years.
There is no static template for humanity, our strongest and most preferential genes are what is carried forth.A planet full of guardsmen, like krieg or cadia, would mean the most hardy soldiers known to mankind, whereas a planet full of subservient administratum adepts would incur the most submissive servants.

Evolution just is.

Thoughts?

This is simply not true anymore. Sadly human "evolution" looks much more like the one portrayed in "Idiocracy" than the evolution of other animals.
