Biological evolution does a pretty poor job of mechanical adaptations in general. For example in the entire history of life on Earth there's no instance of a true wheel being developed. I'd say evolution is really good at chemical engineering, decent at aerospace engineering, okay-isn at electrical/computer engineering, and incompetent at mechanical engineering.
