Can you think of a scientific explanation, besides analogy used by Paul Ehrlich, for the direct relationship between diversity and stability of an ecosystem?

Paul Ehrlich has taken nature as an airplane composed of thousands of cracks showing different species.

If every passenger starts to get off the rivet, the plane will not be safe, moreover the removed rivet is also important.

Extinction will occur as a result of human encroachment on natural resources. This results in inequality in the ecosystem.

If the type of ecotone is removed it could be a very important factor in the destruction of the environment.
