Orangutans aren't humans, so what are you saying, apes which don't throw rocks to kill their prey don't... throw rocks to kill their prey?
I'm specifically talking about the evolution of hands, humans are not the only organism with hands.
Like complex brains are evolutionarily fit because they can solve lots of disparate problems, hands are evolutionarily fit because they can do lots of disparate things.
Of course, we do also then design violins for our specific dexterity.
Your human hands, which co-evolved with throwing things, we have abundant paleontological evidence of this and you may read as many papers on the subject as you would care to.
Also unsure how that's an appropriate response to a request for citations?
So I don't think it's out of place for the GP to address this.
