This is a non sequitur.

1) Men are not monkeys. Okay, most men are not monkeys. We're looking at better planning ability and organization, and ability to move the resources to where they want them, and better technical skills in general.

2) We aren't talking about building a big, smooth, granite box by accident; we're talking about doing it very deliberately.

The phrase "red herring" just wants to leap into the conversation, here.
