[] bioprogram theory and Chomskyan universals fit rather well together, as illustrated in Figure 5.1 [] The bioprogram language would constitute a core structure for human language. Natural languages would be free to vary within the space between the outer limit of the bioprogram and the overall limit imposed by formal universals, which represent neural limits species-specific limits on human capacity to process language.
