A batch of the best highlights from what Tristan's read, .
You were right, after all, Fabian concedes. Understandings, here. Not as we have them, but something analogous. Convergent evolution, Viola decides. Perhaps it is something that any life would attain, eventually. Fabian is tired enough and unsettled enough to stamp out a sharp answer. Except we did not evolve it, not really. It is a part of the virus the humans used to “uplift” our forebears. Earth life never developed such a facility. This is the motherlode, here. We are… artificial pretenders to it.

In OOP, the contrast between inheritance and composition is often called “is-a vs has-a”. A surgeon is a doctor, so it makes sense to inherit Surgeon from Doctor. A surgeon has a scalpel, which means the Surgeon class could have a property called scalpel, but it would be strange if Surgeon inherited from Knife.
