The existence of one is usually an indicator of more, especially when the sample size is low.

If we were the only “rational” beings (all of past, present, and future), that would clearly be some feat!

However, if we’re to bet on our limited evidence that this is true, we’re likely not to flourish as we might.

Just remember, there are more stars than sand, and more time than not.

We are surely not the first observers of this reality (however “rational” or not), and likely not the last.

I cannot see it as a "feat", as I literally did nothing to make that happen. So, it's not dissimilar to the wonders of other animals: cool but not thanks to me.
