How could nature have ever anticipated that technology? Or did the piano evolve until it hit the natural ability sweet spot? The latter, of course. One of the fallacies that show up in the discussion of design vs happenstance is the folks get hung up on the notion of a planned end result. Had we evolved differently, then we would have not pianos but musical instruments suited to the beings that we turned out to be. Or maybe no musical instruments at all. It's like in probabilities where the probability that you will get some result is higher than the probability that you will get a specific result.
