In keeping with the computer science flavor, we can say that no one
invented earth or balls to be round.  Rouindness is an emergent
behavior of a substance which has shape-forming adhesion and
shape-changing fluidity, and is subject to radially symmetric
shape-impacting processes.  Magma and gravity for the earth, leather
and air pressure for inflated balls, sand and accretion for beach
"cannonballs", and snow and hand pressure for snowballs.
