Actually, this is only partially true. With Lightning, things can most certainly "happen" in between blocks. Granted, some things that "happen" may never make it to the main chain, but many things will get rolled up and committed for all to "see".
Did a retreat. We ate at 6AM and 11AM. No food after Noon. Fasting for 18 hours a day, as we were designed. No stomach problems, felt great, real and regular.
Problem is, we eat a feast each and every night and were never meant to. Our success is killing us. Slowly and in a variety of horrific manners.
Sorry what does that mean? Do you think that 50 odd generations before us aren't changing our DNA with habit changes, while living in a different country for 2 years does?
Do you find asking stupid questions productive? Honestly curious about that one. Also, this question I ask is a leading one. Know the difference.
Design can be considered "doing" by an organism in its change for survivial. Our "doing" made us be efficient with food. It's not like it was laying around or something back when we evolved, like it is nowadays.
Doesn't matter if we have an excess of food laying around today, DNA-wise. It takes generations to evolve new organisms that can deal with glut or scarcity. We are evolved the way we are and unlike the dork who wants citation about it, you aren't going to get what you want just by demanding it.
Only doing will show the truth. Talking about it is pointless and counterproductive to the end goal of reality, which is basically the efficient search for interesting.
The natural state of humans in our early days may have involved the things you claim -- it's a tough claim to back up. But it almost certainly also involved a much shorter and more violent life than we enjoy today, when "our success is killing us".

Is there any evidence for this at all, other than food was scarce? I can weave an equally compelling tale that as browsing hunter-gatherers we were eating pretty much constantly from the moment we woke to when we fell asleep, albeit in small quantities throughout the day.
The key is imagine. We have no means by which to estimate the proposed loss in the future when it happens. Talking about such a "loss" is irrational, at best. It matters not if someone pirates software. If someone is pirating your software, and you care deeply about it, your model for making money is probably off.

This is, ironically, how reality works.
