Exactly. Every ocean is just a cloud being held down by gravity.
In these metaphors though, gravity (or the leash Kanda mentioned) would need to be: philosophy, trial and error, oxytocin, endorphins, historical knowledge, the ability to accrue knowledge in the first place, empathy, self interest, reproductive drive, natural selection, and more.
Remove all of the forces that make humans kind to each other… and you wouldn’t have humans anymore. Just like removing gravity would eliminate both oceans AND clouds.
