The cartoon of yours concluded that the rock shape was designed because:
"Very simply, it is because rocks with that shape, and that arrangement do not occur naturally, and we have no natural mechanism for their arrangement other than chance."
Such an argument would not work for something like signals from aliens or alien flying machines because maybe they do just occur in nature and we don't know it yet.
