This will be the reasoning behind drastically overplanting. Most of them will fail, and there is nothing that you can do about it. This is natures way of culling out unfit genetics.
Think of it this way… Helping the little guy out of his seed for him may help him to survive, but if the genetics are unfit, then it may be more trouble than its worth to keep it alive. It will likely be nutrient deficient, prone to infection, and not very strong. Continuing on a genetic line unfit for survival can prove disastrous for species in the long run, though breeding.
