Falling sycamore seeds gave da Vinci the idea of helicopter. Technology of his time was not developed in areas where his design could have benefited. Had he designed it in the period of Industrial revolution it would have been another story: history of flying would have got an earlier start.
Sycamore tree grows to a height of 70’-0”or so. It has a large canopy to maximize the absorption of CO2. From such a height and large canopy it makes sense if the tree wants to ensure its seeds are scattered farther from it shade.
Each takes lessons from nature differently.
