Okay, let's posit parallel evolution, and that there's only one way to string DNA together.* Add in the fact that the species-ending asteroid that wiped out the dinosaurs** and empowered small warm-blooded animals was a statistical fluke. In that case, when we do reach other solar systems, they'll all be run by…big lizards that think we're edible vermin?
Ooo, that's going to be difficult for everyone.
