** Possibly the evolutionary lineage that led from the prolemuris to the Na'vi went through a semi-aquatic phase in the past, which made positioning of the nostrils higher on the body more advantageous for catching a breath at the surface without exposing one's whole upper torso. Same reason why crocodiles have their nostrils aiming upwards rather than forewards, and cetaceans' are on top of their heads.

** Second, Jake never tells the Na'vi why the humans are on Pandora. All he had to say was what the humans wanted (magnetic rocks) and why (according to WordOfGod, humanity in this movie have ruined Earth's environment and need the Unobtanium to power starships to find oth habitable planets). Then they could've worked out a solution.

* The human cast are rather diverse and there is no evidence of racism or sexism [[ApeShallNeverKillApe among humans themselves]]—there are several women in the military who are treated no differently from the men, and the head scientist on Pandora is a woman. This means that humanity has not reverted to how things were during the age of imperialism… ''but this just makes it worse'', since it means they know that exploitation of their fellow humans, exactly the same way that they are currently exploiting the Na’vi, [[NoBloodForPhlebotinum and for the same reasons]], is wrong. Yet Grace’s anti-imperialist ideas are so marginalized that even Jake begins the movie fully okay with exploiting the Na’vi and possibly killing them. Combine this with the fact that the RDA, ''not'' Earth’s governments, [[OneNationUnderCopyright are giving the military orders]], which top brass like Quaritch have no problem with, and that there is no evidence that anyone on Earth outside the RDA even benefits from Pandora’s exploitation, it means that humans aren’t doing this out of ideology or even genuine belief in Na’vi inferiority. They simply choose to reenact the worst parts of European imperialism despite knowing it is wrong [[ForTheEvulz because they feel like it]].

*** Maybe, maybe not - it's very likely that aykelutral (hometrees) grow so large ''because'' of unobtanium, like a fertilizer. That would mean that mining without disturbing a Na'vi site is practically impossible.

* At first, it may seem like the reason why Jake Sully was screwing around on [[(spoiler:and even deciding to stay on]]) Pandora instead of doing his mission was because of Neytiri, but in reality, it's because it's the only time he ever gets to being on his own legs instead of being in a wheelchair.
