If it weren’t for the green coloration, one might suspect it was a satellite image of criss-crossing city roadways. From where comes the similarity? Are the minds of the “designers” of each similar?

I wouldn’t say so. In fact, in the case of the green criss-crossing, my guess is it reflects intrinsic properties and constants of our universe coupled with the selective power of persistence. What persists, exists.
