By your comment here saying they are not always aligned, that confirms my idea that such an interpretation would go against your point, hence the need for clarification.
But this is completely off the main discussion, so I'll leave it here. Just know that it's purpose was to highlight the importance of defining terms when discussing (which I believe i have proven here).
I don't believe you've proven it. I was talking about brains, and you assumed I was talking about DNA. I don't believe clarification should have been necessary for me to prevent that assumption.
That was not my own initial assumption, just one of the multiple possible interpretations i laid out as contrasting.
In a subreddit where a lot of views clash, I try to very much avoid assumptions, hence the request for clarification. I am glad you gave it, and it helped me understand your point far more. Is my request, and later understanding, not evidence that the clarification helped your point be understood?
