Why can't Evolution explain why inanimate matter evolved into the first living cell?

"Because it doesn't have to or need to." - Jaguarbhzrd

That's not an answer to the question. It's not even right, and it certainly doesn't explain why ToE doesn't cover the first instance of Evolution.

How long do my explanations need to be to you, and why did you cut the rest of it?

Evolution did not exist before the first imperfect replicating cell existed, therefore it does not and cannot explain what happened before that. Because it did not exist yet.

Evolution cannot happen, unless there is an imperfect replicating living cell. So to try to explain something that happened before it existed is silly in the extreme.

This is a strawman. No one has claimed that the theory of evolution does not "cover the first instance of Evolution".
