I think that's part of our anthropic bias, not sure we'd be alive without water's surface tension in order to observe this.

    Well cells wouldn’t be circle shaped, but would it actually be to the detriment of life in that or other ways?

    Maybe cells could take a more pragmatic shape, like tactical dicks

    Trees wouldn’t exist, so life would definitely look different.

    I think that could make some life-supporting chemical reactions difficult to happen, but I'm not qualified to judge that.

    I don’t, not that I am qualified to say so either! The larger surface area might be beneficial for osmosis!
