We don't have built in weapons. We have hardpoints(hands) that can hold a wide variety of weapons.

This is wrong on two accounts. If you assume naturalism, then life evolved through purely evolutionary processes, and no species was "meant" to do anything. We, along with every other organism, are accidents. Assuming theism, God would've intended for humans to have dominion over the earth and its creatures, and to be on top of the food chain.

How's the post inconsistent with naturalism?

I guess it's technically not... But it kinda implies that some species were meant to do something, and we cheated the system by being intelligent, whereas with naturalism, we weren't even meant to exist, let alone perform some kind of function. We just beat the odds (which were unbelievably stacked against us) and arose. We are tiny, insignificant, accidental creatures on a tiny speck of dust called Earth that will eventually vanish, rendering our entire lives objectively meaningless. Of course, I don't believe this, but that's what naturalism entails.

That makes sense. I think that OP was implying how fascinating it is that humans came out on top, despite having weak muscles, no camouflage, and horrible senses.

Well he would be correct in that sense. We're pretty easy targets without our guns. Haha.

And our houses engineered, to withstand high levels of wind.

Obviously we were meant to be at the top of the food chain because we are intelligent enough to find ways to take down prey without having claws, super sharp teeth, and without being very fast or strong.
