I dont think life is special but i dont think it is common either, based on observations of planets in other solar systems it appears that not much life exists, might i add, i am an evolutionist
You have seen other Solar systems? wow! you must be the first!(sorry) we have evidence that there are planets around other stars but we have not "Observed" and we may not for a long time. as of now we are contained in our sun's Solar system. So as I said life could be very common we just don't know it

If joined food and air pipes are such a bad design, how come we humans didn't become extinct long ago because of the mutations and natural selection process producing better designs?
One of the biggest reasons this shared food/air pipe construction became fixed in the human population is because it allows complex speech.
Being able to communicate complicated information is a huge survival advantage to the species and would outweigh the cost of losing some individuals to choking.
