Trying to explain prevalence of genotype-phenotype map bias

Ideas:

• Constrained and unconstrained parts. See The organization of biological sequences into constrained and unconstrained parts determines fundamental properties of genotype–phenotype maps pdf
• Algorithmic information theory: Shannon-Fano code, universal probability. See below. See draft paper.
• Random finite transducer. See Simplicity bias in finite-state transducers
