That said, if those sorts of concepts are natural in our world, then it’s kinda weird that human minds weren’t already evolved to leverage them.
A counter possibility to this that comes to mind:
There might be concepts that is natural in our world, but which are only useful for a mind with much more working memory, or other compute recourses than the human mind.
If weather simulations use concepts that are confusing and un-intuitive for most humans, this would be evidence for something like this. Weather is something that we encounter a lot, and is important for humans, especially historically. If we haven’t developed some natural weather concept, it’s not for lack of exposure or lack of selection pressure, but for some other reason. That other reason could be that we’re not smart enough to use the concept.
