It's also a requirement for surviving a devasting global flood. All that pretzel logic to explain how the animals survived, but you're still left with 'God magicked it that way' to explain the survival of the land plants.
common man... Seriously? Do you not know how SEEDS work? whether stored away on the ark or left out in the wild, once the water receded that would have simply germinated.
Also you do get that God is actually the one making all of this work right? The Flood narrative is not meant to be received as a logistical tale of how one man and his family saved the world from an angry God, but rather how god used one man's faith to save the world and all the living creatures in it from an evil this world has not seen since.
Some things (not necessarily this in particular) just need to be left to God. As with all things there is alway a balance to be found
