Efficacious: is excellent at its stated intent Efficient: is resource-or-time light in accomplishing its stated intent. That'd be my read as they're different and lumping them together in the first place plays into Taylorism.

Race is a technology that was created to make suppression of guilty and indignant feelings more efficient, in the service of wealth production. Systematically excluding the nation's poor from your tax base, and racism, are two sides of the same coin.
And, of course, as we developed more sophisticated tools we created slings, boomerangs, and bows, all of which are more efficient than just muscle but all require similar flexibility and strength. It’s entirely possible that an alien civilization doesn’t develop ranged weaponry until firearms.
