gorillas sit around eating a vegetarian diet and have massive muscle mass just because they metabolize different kinds of protein MUCH more effectively than humans do and also are much more physically active than the average human

Fixed it for you.

it seems more like we've found a (dear gods gag me but it's the right word) synergy we could exploit

But what if the gorillas stopped sitting around and actually worked to build muscle mass? We've never actually seen a gorilla that was trying to get as big and as strong as he could.

I don't know about the physical activity. Gorillas are known for not moving around much. But they lack the muscle size regulation that we have.

Well That was my point, we work at it they don't. And most of bro dude protein intake is wasted
