Who says it has to be at the cosmic level? I don’t there’s any logical inconsistency in God creating a perfect pirate, a perfect guitarist, or a perfect doctor. The attributes commonly ascribed to godly perfection need not be applied to perfect humans.
And the snake was in the Garden only because God put it there. You sure you want to follow that road?
