While I agree that no race is necessarily "superior" to one another, superiority isn't necessarily based on "perfection."

Simply put, one doesn't have to be "perfect" to be better than someone.

Perfection is an illusion anyway because humans are never really satisfied. I'm also a firm believer that there is always someone out there who is better than you at something.

The premise contained in the question is assinine. Since nothing is perfect in life, there is no superior or inferior? For example, since my Ferrari is not perfect, it is not superior to my BMW 325i?
