That's not an answer to my question, it's just different a wrong assertion.

To answer your new point,

Life has never once failed to become self-aware and capable of space travel in the entire history of the universe, as far as we know. What could possibly make you think it's irrational to expect it could happen again?

There are quite a few clades here on earth that failed to become self-aware, still less capable of space travel.

I didn't say every living thing became technologically advanced, but that life on earth did. It only takes one species for a planet like our to be screaming at full volume in every direction simultaneously.
