How broadly this mode of evolutionary change is exploited in nature remains to be seen, but if the prevalence of repetitive elements within genes is any indicator, then mammals, insects, plants, and other genomes throughout the natural world may use this mechanism to achieve evolutionary agility.

Short DNA fragments are not able to reassemble repetitive elements in the genome — for these hard to assemble regions longer sequence read information is needed. (reviverestore.org)
A chiastic literary structure can be viewed as a sort of sandwich, with repetitive parallel elements at the beginning and end as the pieces of bread, similar repetitive elements within those, representing the condiments, and the meat — the main point of the passage — in the middle.
