If you were taking an engineering class in school and you turned in the human body for your final exam… you would get like, a C+. Or maybe a B- at best. That’s because the human body is full of design flaws. Except they aren’t really design flaws, because the human body wasn’t designed. It was evolved, and it is still evolving. And that means some of our parts don’t work as well as they could, they just work well enough. Here’s a rundown of a few of the human body’s biggest evolutionary fails!

[@nate7790]

I see what you mean. And yet the entirely new human comes out waaayyy before it's ready to face the world. We are born very weak and unable to take care of ourselves if you compare to many other species. There are others born weak like us as well but many actually require much less time to be able to fend for themselves.

[@JFlora23]

The baby is supplied with copious amounts of blood, which is why it's able to develop as it does. Tendons and ligaments, on the other hand, aren't fed with a steady blood supply. In turn, this makes healing extremely difficult and long.

“Surviving isn’t about being perfect, it’s about being good enough” Possibly one of the smartest quotes I’ve ever heard

[@EmilMToft]

Surviving is not "about being good enough" but about adaptation. Without adaptation and gene mutation over time, we would not have come this far but would be extinct.

[@roberthuntley1090]

Its about being better than the possible alternatives within reach of a few generations of genetic changes. In other words, each generation has to be as good as/better than the one before, or its gets selected out. As a result, you can't make yourself less competitive for a few tens of generations to undo one of evolutions mistakes, and only then get better again in the new configuration.

This entire argument is the dump classic blind watch maker Essentially hating on god creation just because we are getting sick and born with problem that means we are thr result of evolution that doesn't make sense at all Cause god hasn't created us to live forever still the human design is intelligent yet we are eventually going to die and age

Evolution always reminds of the joke in which two hunters see a bear moving their way. One quickly pulls off his boots. and puts on running shoes. His friend looks at him as says "are you crazy? Even with those shoes, you'll never outrun a bear". His friend replies "I don't need to outrun the bear, I need to outrun YOU".

I initially just accepted the combination of being imperfect and aging, as there is not much that can be done. Add in that I also accepted the western ideas of comfort and ergonomics as healthy, plus being too stubborn to change my diet and exercise. Oh yeah, and that whole posture thing is silly. Luckily, I was forced to walk a lot everyday for a while. Suddenly, my legs don't go numb when I sleep on one side too long. Maybe I should try exercising the rest of me. Of course there is that issue with my hands due to all those decades in the office typing, more strain is bad right, wrong. Varying amounts of strain are good, repetitive consistent strain is bad. Playing with heavy dumbbells fixed my hands. And thanks to youtube and some good suggested videos. Like this posture thing is actually a good idea. Still working on the deep squat thing, but close Carrying stuff on the head works too, but still need to work on that as well. Oh and those visits to the physiotherapist taught me so much. Now when I pull something, often a few minutes using mild stretching and pressure on tight sensitive muscle tissue, and I am as good as new. So yes, we do have some imperfections and probably can not always fix them when they result in issues, but let us not forget that our lifestyle, activity and diet may be just as imperfect if not more imperfect, and maybe just maybe we can keep ourselves in better shape than we realized.

ACL tear occurs when you try to rotate your torso without rotating your legs with it. ACL is the only thing supporting the knee because those leg muscles, don't exert force sideways. The pectineus and sartorius let you flex and rotate the thighs at the hip joints not quadriceps or hamstrings. Consider it like this. There are two wooden rods which are connected by a thin piece of wood (ligament). Now rotate one rod without rotating the other, the thin piece of wood will break.

But in scenario in which you feel constant pain which basically forces you to doing something so you remove said splint and you're more likely to survive because the faster you take it out the bigger the chance it won't get infected. So constant pain is a body's way to warn you that there is constantly something wrong with it. But still I partially agree with you. For example toothache really sucks because before the era of dentists you couldn't really do anything about it except rip it out. Nonetheless causes of toothache can be almost just as deadly as an infection so i understand why our bodies do this.
