Could, but it also could be an indicator of "we don't really understand biology yet".
Biology is more complicated than maths/physics. Multiple extinction crises that shaped the world are still written into our genome and there can be very subtle adaptations at play.
People with certain patterns in their non-coding DNA are at much higher risk of ALS, a terrible disease [0] - it certainly looks that at least this part of DNA plays some role in our organisms.
