We had to invent agriculture to survive, which -is- a method of exploiting autotrophism. Ofc I'm talking ethics, because we were talking ethics....but moving the goalpost doesn't help. "God" fucked the pooch on that one too, if we wish to believe in such things.
We came into this world without clothing, without shelter, without sufficient means of feeding ourselves. Without the ability to hedge against the various diseases, injuries, and illnesses that would plague us directly as a result of seeking out the fisrt three, and some..even, that are unique to us.
This, Not..is "the design". Do you consider it unimproved? Is there some "but what if" that would make an improvement in our ability to feed ourselves, itself already improved by our own hands..somehow, not an improvement?
More fundamentally, this "survival" business sounds like a metric of evolutionary biology, not divine power and ability...pretty sure I already handled that. Unless we're discussing an incompetent creator, "survival" is planned obsolescence.
