And the known universe probably functions a bit like a neural net which is made out of plasma and interstller gas, which is to say not at all and they just kinda look similar without having anything else in common.
Human brains are geared to see similarities and patterns in the world around them. Sometimes that means there's actually a connection, sometimes it's nothing.
