(I’m just having fun trying to figure more out at this point)
Language
Mathematics
Long term medical advances and study that influence what food people are allowed to sell you (the F in FDA)
Commercial art and aesthetics which influence the literal shape of all products that surround you everyday (from the curves on the edges of your monitor to the grooves and overall shape of the water bottle you drink from.
Humankind’s overall attempt at dealing with gravity (which defines the way we walk, create chairs and desks, build objects like toasters and fridges, fortify buildings, etc.)
The above one could likely fall into an umbrella of something like “The way in which we design our world based on possible human limitations based around enabling ourselves to accomplish goals while limited to human movement and shape. I’m imagining the creation and shape of hammers, screwdrivers, cups, and pretty much everything that could actually have an alternate shape if our biology (talons instead of hands?) was different.
