That's quite a technical answer. I suspect the hope is that if you understand all the stages of a process, the transition from the beginning to the end is no longer so mysterious. There would be transitional phases, as in the natural selection of species. The ultimate use of this evolutionary mode of explanation would be to explain, with something like sheer exotic math, how nothing becomes something. That's roughly the strategy of theoretical physics in cosmology. Yet evolution requires an active starting point, such as a creative kind of "nonlife" or physicality, which is what a pantheistic view of nature entails.
