What is this word "progress?" Survival of the fittest, not progress of the fittest is the rule I think. A genome needs to survive, not dominate. For 150 million years we ate dinosaur eggs. We mammals survived. We ate up the dinosaurs and got big and dumb in the eocene. Really big dumb animals like titanotheres. Our ancestors stayed small and agile and exploited niches. Got smarter and smarter.
