On the virtue of scarcity, being mortal, being NOT omniscient, NOT omnipotent, being Finite, etc. (thus arising the need to optimize, etc.):
[Fig Tree] "By end of the story Gilgamesh is human; He is Us; We see the Deep; That's our gift as humans; We fight to understand something no god could ever could (emergence and richness from scarcity); The gods don't need to fear death so they don't have to live an impassionate life; It means nothing to them to run out of time; "Seeing the deep" is the apex of human potential, not a transgression into godhood; It's something that only humans can do."
