But energy efficiency is not always a challenge. See for example the vague nerve in giraffes, the appendix in humans or limbs in whales.

In the matter of reforming things, as distinct from deforming them, there is one plain and simple principle; a principle which will probably be called a paradox. There exists in such a case a certain institution or law; let us say, for the sake of simplicity, a fence or gate erected across a road. The more modern type of reformer goes gaily up to it and says, “I don’t see the use of this; let us clear it away.” To which the more intelligent type of reformer will do well to answer: "If you don’t see the use of it, I certainly won’t let you clear it away. Go away and think. Then, when you can come back and tell me that you do see the use of it, I may allow you to destroy it.
However it is a one sided approach. Sometimes there must also be an answer to “If you don’t see the use of keeping it, I won’t let you”, e.g. radical mastectomy, conservatism.

The sad thing is that not having the rights to something doesn’t stops you from filling a claim, even scammers fill DMCA claims over original content, the movie is already down from archive.
