  • non joke answer: the bee is compelled to build wax, wax takes a comparative large amount of effort and calories to produce, so they evolved to use a shape that requires the least effort and takes the most space. It could’ve been squares, but squares are harder to form and less compact, so it’s likely they started with blobs/circles, and over millions of years, more closely, densely packed hives survived where others didn’t until they ended up at the idea shape of a hexagon.
