While I agree with this meme, I would still like to present the following counterargument:
What year was this computer mouse built?!
150 million BC
Still works. Why upgrade?
It sometimes slides off the table on its own, got kinda annoying after a couple falls
It's the original one-button mouse, built for the Apple Elise in 1810.
Imagine if these things were actually chubby lil guys with lots of soft fatty parts and cartilage but this is just what's left of them
You're looking at a photo of a horseshoe crab. Still very much alive and complete.
Yeah but like, what if their ancestors were different and they just evolved it all away?
They're arthropods, so in terms of the appearance in the fossil record, it's pretty much what they are completely. Idk how far you wanna go in terms of evolutionary ancestry, but they've conserved most of their featured for a quite a long time: https://www.frontiersin.org/articles/10.3389/feart.2020.00098/full
