This is a great observation. Our tools would be designed according to our experience of the world.
But theres another catch, the tools we use change the shape of our mindset, leading us to design other tools that now map to this new perception of reality we have with the new mindset we built by using the former tools.
The hunter-gatherer example given in the first comment for instance, i bet with enough evolutionary steps, we will not be able to trace back to that mindset, because we have "patched" our own mindset so many times with new tools(over tools) that we will have very little "mindset identity" to share with our former "hunters-gatherers" primordial cousins.
