I've so deeply internalized the quasi-fundamental force of entropy that the idea that anything — especially anything natural — could be perfect and regular is absurd. There's noise, uncertainty, and messy imperfections literally everywhere. Nothing is exact. Nothing happens the same way everytime. Nothing can be perfectly categorized.
That's why engineering and science are fun and inspirational. If you're careful and patient enough, you can learn and build amazing things in spite of the chaos.
@malcircuit Nit(?): There are things in nature that are precise and repeatable: first example that comes to my mind is that all electrons are identical, second is that differences in energy between different excitation levels are always nearly the same.
