Whether nature follows a plan is up for debate. I am personally in the camp that it doesn't, but I understand if someone isn't.
I am guessing that was not your point though, but that you simply missed that I was only complaining about strictly adhering to "natural" process which the OP seems to hold in very high regard (rightfully so, but they fail to mention that we can and should improve on them, which was the point I was making).

I 100% agree, it was not my intention on the post that “nature” is the approach to follow completly, we don’t want to take million years randomly guessing for sure, just borrow a part of what nature does, which is facing the real world, letting some parts die and move on. I agree with your completion to the point
I think we should embrace experimentation, but we should improve on natural processes because we are smart, sentient beings, and there are things we can predict and measure much faster, and thus pivot much faster too (as an example, all genetic diseases that are commonly terminal after the early reproductive age in humans are likely to be carried on into descendants because, well, reproduction has already happened — it would take many generations for "nature" to weed out those diseases, but luckily, we've got medicine that helps us not even having to weed them all out, and does stop some altogether).
