Ah, well that explains away one of the examples... You must be right! (I'd argue that the analysis of DNA is a thought/type of understanding, rather than the essence of a living thing, but that quickly gets towards another linguistic argument of Sausserian structuralism vs post structuralism.)
I'm not taking any of this seriously, but if others want to continue taking it that way I'll play along :p
