    Throwing (and hitting what we’re throwing at) is a human superpower. We laypersons may take arms and throwing for granted but to anthropologists and biologists it’s a pretty big deal.

    The thing is, a significant part of our brain is tasked with throwing. It’s not just superior eye-hand coordination but our brain knows how to arc the rock / javelin / ball. We also have a mean fastball.
