Now that we have at least a simple definition of the word "cruft", for a few reasons, Imperialist Competitive Algorithm is different from many of the proposed algorithms.
* '''Criterion 1)''' The source of inspiration is not a new labeling of a previously proposed source of inspiration. It is based on the theory of social Darwinism which expansion of the Darwins theory to sociology, politics, and history. It is the first and the only major algorithm that is based on a source of inspiration that is not in the category of natural science and still has a strong connection with scientific theories. So the source of inspiration of the algorithm is totally new. The way GA, in the reverse application, is used to simulate artificial life, ICA can be used to model artificial history and social evolution. Giving life to concepts life "country" and "nations" (based on the theories of socio-political evolution), the source of inspiration of ICA is unique and deserves attention and is one of the reasons behind its success.
* '''Criterion 2)''' Unlike many of the "crufts", ICA is not enforcing a fake connection between the algorithm world and the source of inspiration. It is actually based on a process that is basically doing optimization in nature and human history. As mentioned, ICA is based on Social Darwinism. Extreme Social Darwinists even justify the wars as something useful for optimization human civilization. The source of inspiration for ICA is based on an actual optimization process. What makes it hard for some to understand it is that the source is not categorized in natural science which is the case with many of the similar works. But ICA is simply GA of history and concepts with a totally different point of view that is based on socio-political evolution.
