What we would expect from the particular designer that you believe created it all is for all modern life forms to appear in exactly the same rock strata at the same time, or with very minor gaps (say... 24 hours). The fossil record most definitely does not show this.

It is definitely a disadvantage for any creature that lives in the sea to not get its oxygen from the sea particularly when they some undertake epic dives and basically hold their breathe for 90 minutes. Any "intelligent designer" would have given sperm whales gills.
