It seems to boil down to "there's stuff, therefore god. Ta dah".

No need to make it that complicated.

How can you point at something and claim evidence of design without implying that there exist other things that aren't designed in comparison?

That's the problem with "intelligent design," in my opinion.

Exactly. It's just a massive assumption that life is designed. No one can give an example of what non-designed life would look like, so there's no hypothesis to test.
