Its not like ginkos stopped evolving. I'd expect they'd evolve to leverage wind more.

Apparently, they really didn't

The only wild ones left are of a small population in South China and when compared to fossils from Jurassic, it hasn't changed that much.

Although, I admit I dont know how reliable this good news network is, but, it says any variance we see today is due to [human intervention, as we pretty much saved them from extinction.
