not to get too much into the concept of structure/function, which is a critical hinge of our understanding of chemistry/biology, the far likelier explanation is that it was simply the most efficient lattice for matter to organize into. I think our understanding of both on a macro level is pretty limited, but at the least we understand that both the brain and the universe are exceptional containers of information; perhaps this is a reflection of nature's most effective hard drive?
in any case, parallelism in nature is always cause for inspiration and wonder.
