Very anthropocentric. Sure, the way we use our hands may have contributed to our ending up this way but that doesn't suggest that opposable thumbs are the only way to skin a cat (ask a dog). The best we could say, if it were true, would be that it's one way to get where you find yourself. Dinosaurs, in their 160 million or so years had to deal with a variety of environmental variables, and thumbs are useful (see: Troodon). This should tell us that thumbs and weather does not a wise creature make - in and of themselves.
