I'm confused by commenters suggesting that creating imperfections proves the creator is imperfect. It's like saying I've baked a donut, therefore I'm a donut.
A creator of anything is logically free to create whatever it wants, for whatever reason it wants. French gardeners for example, used to create gardens with perfect symmetries and measurements; meanwhile English gardeners embraced imperfection in their gardens. Creating a perfect garden or knowing how to give it imperfections, are arguably both equally skilful and intelligent endeavors.
That being said, although I do agree scripture does explain away imperfections, it tends to do so by suggesting everything was created perfectly in the beginning, and then there was a falling out of man and nature which brought death and imperfection into creation. It does not seem to imply God created major imperfections as part of his original creative project.
