apparently our ability to throw things somewhat accurately is impressive
Not just impressive... Like, unique and so OP a group of humans could take out a lion. Large cats are the most OP things on the planet, and at best they can pick off isolated humans...a group of humans with just random rocks can kill anything on land. And we also make things to throw
And this is like our secondary skill - we're persistence hunters and skilled omnivores first
heheh YEET
Also hand eye coordination. Which is kind of part of what you said, but i'm always amazed how i can push something over while cooking for example and without even thinking my hands just shoot out and grab it midair.
just remember a falling knife has no handle :]
