I dunno. Much as I am scathing about aliens (especially those that abduct complete eejits) I can see there are many other ways for species to develop on other worlds.
Homo Sapiens are aggressive, rapacious and enclined to theocracies. We have also developed (along with other animals on this planet) the need to see meaningful patterns where they don't exist. This might help species at the beginning, but is surely a hindrance to logical thought.
Maybe other zygotes in other places developed differently.
Maybe they understood eco-systems even as they were developing. They might not have made other species extinct in the name of greed.
Just saying.
