    That’s not really hard to explain. Clutches offer a survival advantage. Same with motor propulsion devices. And the ability to replicate.

    clutches, fiber optics, pick-&-place robotics, aerodynamic control surfaces, supercomputers, algorithmic logic controls, data storage & retrieval… all pretty much confer some sort of survival advantage.

    Yeah, easy to explain from a materialist viewpoint.
