Plus if you view mutation as an evolutionary leap...they are normal, the new normal, and everyone else the aberration.

Hmm, you could, but I still like the more inclusive one simply because otherwise you're excluding non-mutants.

Of course, just because they could be seen as the "next step" also doesn't exclude non-mutants from still being a viable species. Since evolution is less like Pokémon and more like... (Oh shit my simile is breaking down.) a game that uses evolution to increase diversity.

The only way mutants could truly be the "next step" is if there's a bottlenecking incident that non-mutants are disadvantaged against.

I'm sorry, I'm thinking way too hard about this. Ignore me.

Mutation doesn't really work that way--they're only an evolutionary plus if being a mutant better allows you to survive and breed. Which is obviously not the case for, say, Rogue.
