i would really like to know where dawkins "assume such an almost complete understanding ...". from what i've read from him, he acknowledges that we still know very little.
there is a very small part of nature we undertsand and a very large part of nature we don't understand yet. there isn't any reason to fill every little gap in our understanding of nature with supernatural fantasies.
