Imagine if you heard about the perfect student, and you went to his school only to discover that a lot of his work is below mediocre. He certainly would not be considered an excellent student, let alone a perfect one. And yet his teachers are insisting that you can not question why the perfect student is making bad work, that the student doesn't owe you an explanation, and that you are committing a fallacy from personal incredulity.
Or imagine that you hear about the perfect architect, but when you look at the houses he made you see that he made the most basic mistakes, like he didn't make a living room, or didn't make a staircase to the upper floor, or the whole house falls apart when you open the door. This certainly would not be a good architect or a perfect one, and yet the proponents of him being the perfect architect say that he doesn't owe you an explanation.
I can't tell the difference between a perfect student who outputs a lackluster result and a imperfect student that outputs a lackluster result
They both are essentially the same.
Imagine if one alkaline battery shows 1.3 V and another alkaline battery shows 1.3 V and the salesmen tells me the second battery is perfectly charged.
Perfection is sometimes easily measurable. Just use your multimeter in this case. Both these batteries are spent.
Humans have developed all kinds of telescopes and probes. Do the heavens look perfect? It doesn't look perfect for human life.
I suppose it is perfect for some life form. Some bacteria can survive freezing and high vacuum and radiation.
