I hear what you're saying, and you're 100% correct, but I think most people will realize it's a figure of speech, and easier to say than "Via the process of gene mutation trial and error over many, many generations of tigers, spots have developed on their ears that look like eyes, resulting in predation from behind being discourged."

One way of thinking of it could be that since all of our intention and decision making originates in such a process, the line between them isn't that clear.
