Basically no one did https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cow_tools

It’s absurdist comedy, the joke is cows don’t have opposable thumbs so can’t use tools, let alone make them. There are other opposable thumb jokes in the world too, it’s almost a subgenre of “animals struggling with human things.”

I tell you farside has way more leeway to do this sort of comedy, because it’s such a short strip so you haven’t invested much attention span given the relatively high rate of pay offs per comic.

Personally if a comic has a certain amount of text to read I often won’t gamble on it, I’ll skip it. The attention economy predates the Internet if you ask me.
