Tony; Now, there are only about 35 major phyla that are generally accepted. I seriously doubt that classification is correct. But even if we double it, or quadruple it, is it too much to think that the creator of the entire universe could create 140 separate creatures with 10 (or 50!) possible variants? As a game designer, I can tell you that creating a few hundred objects with a few dozen variables, while not trivial, is certainly doable event bu humans. If God already has the Blueprint (program), and understands it the way today's procedural programmers understand their code, the task would be almost trivial.

Actually in the Cambrian about 70 phyla have been identified. I think that flurry was to set the patterns in the most reasonable way.
