How much change can occur in one generation (animals)

Is it true that in 99% of cases evolution happens in just a few genes at a time?

Lockdown of dangerous memories - can it happen to normal memories too?

I’m asking for guidance because I know how unreliable chatbots are.

I’ve been talking with Gemini and it says that there is a brain function of permanently isolating and guarding a specific thought so it can never be consciously recalled. It says this only happens with specific memories that present an immediate threat to a person's sanity, survival, or psychological stability. “We know the brain reserves this severe "lockdown" treatment exclusively for high-stakes, threat-related memories because ordinary memories do not trigger the biological panic buttons required to alter the brain's physical architecture.”

Is Gemini right here? Is it impossible for ordinary memories to get this kind of treatment? How do we know the brain won’t alter its physical architecture for an ordinary thought?
