This is a good point. However maybe the trouble comes from the word "find"? If a natural force such as gravity or thermodynamics results in a state of energy conservation, maybe that isn't the result of "finding"? I know it's a semantics issue but it seems to solve the conundrum. If you spend energy to discover information, vs letting nature take you there, maybe that's the delineation?
