In absence of a centralized gov't/queen?
Non-fiction isn't even consistent, never mind fiction. ;)
If Bond kept getting captured and that close to death in real life like he is in the films, he'd be toast long ago. South Park's Kenny.
"Movers and shakers" don't need to get it right.
I have little idea what it's like to see through compound eyes or move in an exoskeleton, despite the illustrations.
Not in the way we do.
I've noticed that, on some sidewalks, the ants were crossing it at the cracks/depressions.
An ant or deer can still see/sense our cars and feet, if not soon enough, so we should still be able to sense interstellar travel. Perhaps we do, or sort of, but don't recognize it as such? But then, an advanced intellect could realize that interstellar travel doesn't make much sense or make much sense to them in specific, since everything we/they need to know is right under their noses, and/or that the notion of interstellar travel is primitive by their standards...
Maybe so-called technological advancement is a bit of a myth because it doesn't really ultimately give us anything much more than we already had when we came into being as a species, and even less, far less-- to the point of slowly hacking away at or corrupting our perceptions of what really matter. That what we deem as technological advancement, for the most part, simply makes us spin in circles.
Our minds can "see" further.
God's ticketless speed limit.
We ARE animals... that may ultimately prove unable to adapt to a world unable to adapt to us. Perhaps that's "obvious".
...Unlike the ant or the deer, as supposedly lower forms as they're perceived.
