    Intergalactic Journal of Biology and Mechanics" explores human physiological adaptations, particularly their unmatched throwing ability, which has made them top predators on Earth. Krill, an alien who hates war, is forced to fight alongside humans against the Kree warlords on Daxton. Trapped without ammunition, the humans and Kree resort to exchanging insults. A particularly offensive remark prompts Captain Adam Vir to use a former pitcher to kill the Kree general with a rock. This sparks a frenzy, with humans using their throwing skills to decimate the Kree. Krill watches in awe as the humans' unique abilities turn the tide of battle.

      Catapults and ballistae require stretchy, springy materials that might not be available on hand. A trebuchet only needs stiff materials because the throwing action is done via counterweight.
      IOW, the trebuchet is easier to source building materials for.

      Well, from the perspective of another form of life not native to this planet, it is entirely possible, once you take into consideration the wide array of climate (from extreme heat, to sub-zero cold), weather, tectonic movement, volcanos, multiple species of poisonous flora, multiple species of deadly fauna, and the gasses that life here breaths (most of life on this planet needs oxygen, yet too much is actually toxic)... so it really isn't outside the realm of possibility that our planet could be considered a "death world".
