Brin forgot one possibility:Not to mention Multiple Designer Theory (MDT). MDT surely explains all the Australian fauna. There the Designer was either Satan, or a goofy apprentice to the Master. Or maybe the apprentice was Satan, and he was unceremoniously let go after the Master saw what he had done. (Platypus, indeed!)Malevolent Design

LOL!
Or there's even the possibility that God just made a mistake. I always loved the line in Oh, God where God admits making two mistakes;
the avocado - made the pit too big
and the ostrich - it's a silly bird.
