I mean I kinda get the “you get a utopia but you have to follow this one rule” thing, but seriously with how immature Adam and Eve were I’d expect any compassionate god to make it like a three-strike thing. Sure if they feel for the snakes bs three times I get being pissed, but once?

I think the snake might have had legs then, although scholars debate that point
