The researchers whose trusted networks rank it highest, strongest advocate first. Every researcher gets a different order.

Evolution of Ecological Niche Breadth (2017, background): “However, little evidence shows that direct trade-offs are ubiquitous or even very common (Bennett & Lenski 2007, Forister et al. 2012, Whitlock 1996).”
A Quantitative Survey of Local Adaptation and Fitness Trade‐Offs (2009, background): “Bennett and Lenski (2007) found that adaptation to alternate thermal environments in Escherichia coli was not associated with a trade-off in a third of their experiments.”
Adaptive laboratory evolution – principles and applications for biotechnology (2013, background): “coli populations that trade-offs at non-evolutionary high temperatures are not universal as individual lineages showed no trade-offs or even a fitness increase [163].”
