I agree, the Cambrian/Pre-Cambrian is where life was still trying to figure out what was up and down...it tried all SORTS of crazy designs, looking for things that worked reliably. The first true vertebrates arrived early in the Cambrian, but also things with crazy eyes, crazy legs, crazy...we don't even know yet. Stuff you'd see from golden-age sci fi drawings.

Fun fact: I have a plush Anomalocaris. So cute!
