The nature of biology is much like classes and data floating around and all seemingly randomly interacting with each other, because ultimately this is just chemistry with thousands of unique compounds, which makes things messy.
It should be noted that biological systems were one of the exlicit inspirations for extremely dynamic and object oriented languages like smalltalk.
Far from being a negative aspect the 'centerless' design and high degree of decentralization is messy, but also extremely robust.The internet as a whole is another example of a human technology that utilizes that sort of design.
