Because Obsidian is really fragile. Maybe a bird hits it by accident, shatters the whole thing.
What if it were egg shaped
Then the bird would probably sit on it I think
Would it be a pretty bird?
That is obviously nonsense. A bird hitting any large structure will not break it.
No way. Birds are stronger than you think. Woodpecker would demolish that thing.
And it's literally also called volcanic glass due to its properties resembling glass. Which I would imagine means it's brittle and prone to shatter.
