A rock shaped by wind and water is just as designed as anything else in that case. If I step on a walnut - the crumbled pieces of shell and even where they end up and how....designed.
- you've left no frame of reference. No object or phenomena or fact where we can rationally say "ah, this, this thing is remarkable, it's clearly designed!". All those things you listed off may be more remarkable for other reasons and fill you with a sense of wonder - but none of them are any more or less designed than my rock, or my shell.
