I wonder about the evolutionary process for improving the human body. In particular, whether living bare-foot or having the most advanced shoes improves our body more in the very long run. We have shoes because of environmental and road conditions. However, if those concerns are eliminated then what's more beneficial to human body? Eventually, are we going to need shoes to enhance performance or to prevent injuries? Our characterization of generally much-superior aliens includes a big head and a tiny body. Does this mean even we could evolve towards the same? What improvements are gained/lost in the short run and lost/gained in the long run? How much of the world class athletic genes is being dispersed globally? How's this going to proceed for the next millenia? One extreme is that our research and development might eventually shrink us to like the aliens in movies. However, teleportation might become possible given a highly simplified body except the brain which could be remapped cell by cell at the crucial points having the rest to be organically grown in a standard way. We might find great use of quantum computing here. Another extreme is an ultimate body which can live forever but can't experience anything. I do agree that highly advanced physical capabilities have relevance but the aliens in movies have significant technological advantage. In my limited knowledge, earth doesn't seem to be extreme in comparison to other planets and that's also probably why it's a lonely one. If we care about human life then the shoe most likely needs to evolve forever. I guess that's why corporations are their own entities for that gives them the right to unlimited life. Regardless of who constructed the garden or when, the many petals give flowers their beauty in every which sense. How would it have been if any other planet, forget all or most of the planets, had intelligent life? This probably would've led humans to advance like earthlings which might still happen due to entrepreneurship over the next hundreds to thousands of years.
