You're twisting reason into a pretzel to justify an explanation for surviving a global flood that there's no evidence happened in the first place. It seems like you'd be in a better postition sticking with the metaphorical lessons of the tale, since you acknoweledge that aspect of it anyway.
Noah did not gather anything God delivered it to him.

Or the animals came and left eggs..

What about marsupials? Is it your contention that pregnant koalas swam across the Pacific and Indian Oceans, gave birth, then swam home? Did God instruct Noah on the construction of marsupial pouches? Bear in mind that a joey stays in its mother’s pouch for six to seven months, which is hard to reconcile with five months on the ark.
Also, assuming they didn’t drown while swimming eight thousand miles, how did the koalas eat during the trip? Koalas feed primarily on eucalyptus leaves, which are famous for not growing in the middle of the ocean.
