I guess you're referring to the part I edited out where I said that there doesn't seem to be any evidence that life is supposed to be easy. I don't think that contradicts humans trying to make life easy.
But it seems to me that a lot of meaning is derived from being at the limit of what is impossible or at least difficult, and staying at the level of easy makes people depressed and unhappy.
