It's kind of near, because why do they have the same pattern? It's all code running on cells. Every cell knows how to grow based on the protein structure connecting it to it's neighbors

Look at the mammal body plan. Look at lizards, birds, and fish - that body plan is coded, the same design tweaked and adapted. Now look at insects and crustatians - totally different body plan

There's things that are coded, and there's things that naturally emerge because the universe likes them. The universe likes symmetry, but certain asymmetry is just too practical to pass up

The universe likes the pattern that makes the artichoke and the plates of the pangolin. It's not body design, it's something simple to code in our reality
