This is a fun post. BTW to answer the image, this is a trick question, which implies evolution is a straight line like some sort of level-up. Nothing can be more or less evolved, because they are evolved to fit their environment. All of what you see in the little bar there are distinct, now extinct, species of australopithecines, hominids, and other assorted great apes.

It also implies that the human progenitor primate is still around unchanged but the modern chimp went through its own lineage.

A point to ponder:

If humans are a successful evolution of previous hominids, it's implied that we outcompeted them, especially where the niches are similar, like Chimpanzees.

Where are the places where non-human great apes continue to exist? The same places where humans weren't able to outcompete them.

You really believe that shit? There isn't even fossil evidence to suggest we have a common ancestor with chimps.
