      I like to describe the aliens that attack you in factorio as environmentalists.

        Pollution actually makes the bugs stronger. Maybe they like pollution and want to go eat it all up.

          They get stronger because they mutate to fight back

            That’s not how evolution works. A species evolves to get stronger in battle if the weak ones die in battle. A species evolves stronger lungs if the weak ones die of lung cancer. Dying of lung cancer doesn’t make a species better fighters.

              Drag is correct, but it’s fantasy evolution we’re talking about

              Pollution makes their species stronger; this doesn’t imply an individual preference.

              Idiots walking off cliffs doesn’t make the survivors like cliffs; it teaches them to avoid them.

              That said, evolution can be a real crap shoot, and you never know what sort of perverse effects you’ll get: like us loving sugar so much we eat ourselves into diabetes.
