I was severely confused for a second because I thought you were talking about Wales

Dollo's Rule is commonly misinterpreted to mean "an animal can never have the same traits its ancestors did" when it actually means that it'll never be able to get rid of its genes it got in the meantime. It is most accurately used when talking about backbreeding the now extinct ancestors of cows and horses: even if a cow or horse is breed to have roughly the same traits as their ancestors, they will still, genetically speaking, be cows and horses instead of aurochs and tarpans.

I'm a geologist and we also have "laws" that on the surface are extremely obvious or all encompasing like Foster's rule (yeah, animals growing bigger or smaller on islands basically leaves no box unchecked, it's just the two options available).

For the first rule, this is how a lot of relationships form in nature, like when a termite is eating decomposing wood and captured a micro-organism in it's digestive tract that allowed it to digest more and more wood, altering both species permanently.

Bergmann's rule seems to be the complete opposite of what's true when it comes to invertebrates. The world's largest centipedes, ants, bees, beetles, spiders, and many others all live in the tropics or near the equator. Same is true for some vertebrates, such as snakes, bats, and turtles.

I’m personally more experienced with tarantulas, where the size difference isn’t much but the females live four times longer than males on average. The only spiders I can think of off the top of my head that don’t have such stark sexual dimorphism in favor of the female is jumping spiders as a whole, but then again I’ve only ever had two species of jumping spiders and the only female I’ve ever had is still very young so I can’t compare her to her peers.

Females have thicker abdomens while males proportionely longer-legged and gangly but otherwise in the same size-range. Finding Wasp Spiders/Argiopes is pretty funny though, when you see a big female in the center of her web you often find a tiny male (looks like a completely different spider) hanging out in the corner. Striking a balance of getting a chance to mate and not being eaten.

There's a pretty famous herpetology example of an exception to Bergman's rule, which is that some sand boas might have re evolved egg laying from the common ancestor of all boas which was probably giving live birth. But this all dependent on the phylogeny at the base of the boa tree, which is a matter under debate right now.

Wish I had this back when I was trying to teach evolution to freshmen, it really is a nice little working compilation of the tendencies of organisms in adaption to their environment. Make another one, if nobody else likes it I will. I wonder if there is a name for the reality of evolution where each step modifies only one gene and each intermediate has to be functional. Start with a model T and try to get to a Tesla roadster with each intermediate being a functional vehicle.

Evolution is all about reproduction, so as long as a dominant trait won't hinder that too greatly they're just kinda stuck with it. The babirusa is a great example where it doesn't matter if an adaptation kills you, so long as you can survive long enough to sire young.

Insects are great general example for this, so many species or even entire groups that have non-functional mouthparts (i.e cant eat) once they reach their adult stage. They are the best at compartmentalizing. Eat all you need to growing up, once you can fly its all about dispersal and reproduction. Mayflies being maybe the most immediate example.
