Remind me of a comment by a hydrologist while on a rafting trip down the Colorado River, decades ago. Along the lines of - evolution cares not for efficiency or expediency, hence there are some convoluted and esoteric paths in nature. As I recall relating to a particular bird’s reproductive process. Off the topic somewhat, but you tickled my memory.
Never heard of the drake equation, very interesting! And thanks for your excellent reply!
Thanks, William. Good point about greed and evolution.
I have heard of this Drake equation, but I've been too scared to go investigate it...
I would bet that Story Musgrave, NASA astronaut with an inquisitive brain, has tried.

True, but so many still experiment and mull, and try to understand the forever egnigma. So many possibilities...
