With no metaphysical interest or principle favoring or precluding the development of sentient beings, it stands to reason that less-than-optimized sentient beings will develop.

The way stated it in your previous post, it sounds like you were saying that we would be better adapted to life in this world if we were not sentient beings.

I should have said, "optimized for the happiness of sentient beings." I'm terrible about assuming context  Demon
