If we build a room full of beachballs and drop a simple organism in there, is it not possible that they begin to display beachball-like traits over the span of millennia?
To me, it's intellectually lazy not to be able to even contemplate the possibility of things. (And unhealthy as well, since finding possibility is a key antidote to depression.)
A beachball for a head, numpty, not something vaguely beach ball alike. Think about how ridiculous you're being. You know, just like we all know, that an elephant with a beach ball for a head is not possible.
