From this I see only three possible conclusions: either the design is flawed, the design is deliberately cruel, or there is no design at all. The third seems the most sensible, and certainly the most attractive. Steve, I submit that there is another possibility: the process is indifferent to you as an individual. When you slip and fall, extreme casualties are occurring for certain parts of you. Do you care? Well it hurts, it will heal and it is part of the business of living. While you don't seek out situations to skin your knee, the fact is that sometimes it happens. Can I posit that because that happens and you don't stop to grieve the losses, you aren't intelligent, caring or compassionate? In this specific case you don't care about the deaths of millions of cells that are part of you. Maybe you have just put it in perspective and know that the nature of life is transience.
