Yep, there’s a reason our noses didn’t simply evolve into a singular hole in the middle of our faces

Two nostrils allows for stereo smells. If we only had one nostril, we would only be able to smell in mono.

I was going to say because it would be fucking weird if we just had one big nose hole. Now I’m thinking about it, our nostrils are already pretty weird.
I’m now looking in the mirror at my nostrils and pumping them to the beat of a song.
