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.
No no no, to make a good analogy about a baker you would have to have a perfect baker making a flawed doughnut which a perfect baker would not do.
God made people and then was unhappy about what he created ergo he did not mean to create them that way meaning he cannot be perfect.
Fuck, now I just want a doughnut!
