What does humanoid form have to do with extraterrestrial life?

Are you saying that any extraterrestrial life would definitely not be in humanoid form?

Perhaps I was too limited in my terminology.
How about "not compatible with most physical forms that would be capable of building a spacecraft that appears to be solid, and piloting it to another solar system"?

” Are you saying that any extraterrestrial life would definitely not be in humanoid form?”

Everything I can offer on this is just speculation, of course. I see no reason why humanoid form is needed. As long as there is some way to manipulate objects and a body which can deal with construction needs, the main issue is the brain.

Just using terrestrial species’ physical abilites, I would wonder if, given the right mental development, why some insects couldn’t begin to develop more advanced ways of manipulating things, as use of tools is a huge step down the road.

They crash a lot. Perhaps they can fly between galaxies well enough, but not driving the saucer without running into the planet would indicate a residual eye-hand coordination that these evolved beings may have lost.
