The 'simpler organisms regenerate, therefore mosaic rules are suspended' argument concedes that mosaic determination is not a universal developmental mechanism, undermining its claimed theoretical scope.

Developmental mechanism(as used in biology and philosophy of science): The biological processes and rules that control how an organism grows from a single cell into a complete adult with different body parts and systems.
Regenerate(as used in biology and developmental processes): The ability of a living thing to regrow or repair damaged or lost body parts, like how a starfish can regrow an arm.
Simpler organisms(as used in developmental biology and philosophy of science): Life forms that are less complex than others—like bacteria or simple worms compared to humans—often used in biology to study how different creatures develop.
Theoretical scope(as used when discussing what a theory is meant to explain): The range of situations or questions that a particular theory or framework is actually designed to address.
