Bacteria, I repeat have been here since the beginning of life, essentially as they (Archaia) always were. The point you always miss is the extreme complexity of the simplest one-celled organism we can study.

One gene has many functions.-No. Only by RNA modification in another layer of complex chemistry operating on its own program.
