Fair, i mean i also love the argument that there’s really no difference between “the manmade world” and “the natural world”because the former is entirely composed of parts stripped from or chemically altered from the latter. So yes, nature has absolutely replicated its ability to organize at a species level through human ingenuity.

Humans are maybe separate from nature primarily on the basis of our attempts (of varying success) to steer, structure, and optimize the organization of nature around us, and knowing how to do so is not an explicit aspect of reality, or at least did not make itself known to early humans so it’s reasonable to believe it’s not explicit. By that, I mean you’re not born with any inherent knowledge of the inner workings of quantum gravity, or of the navies stokes equation, or any of the tooling that supports it, but clearly these models exist and evolve tangibly around us in every moment. We found something nature hid from DNA-based biological tree of life, and exploited it to great effect.

Again, this is a colossal shitpost.
