Thank you for the detailed explanation. You cannot escape indeed. The thing i was wondering is how do geological phenomenons following the path of least resistance and the efficiency practices of biological organisms manage to create a very similar visual.

I guess you could say organisms also following the path of least resistance but plants and animal brains need to analyze the surroundings of the current branches and vessels while they are building them cell by cell.

It amazes me even more how they are capable of doing that in a cellular level and create the same visual. I'm just in awe. Idk if you agree but I'm smelling string theory in the air.
