And the real life reasons we think of "vehicles" as being shaped a certain way in the first place is we built them to be bigger than us in order to carry us and therefore they have to distribute weight differently from us

Without getting too handwavy and Panglossian ("everything that exists is already the optimal way it should be"), humans and dogs and horses are pretty much the right shape for what they are (legs are much more versatile than wheels)
