This statement has nothing to do with what I am saying.

To posit that rocks are quite possibly life forms takes the meaning out of what we mean when we say “life”.

That's my point, and by extension, to say that life could take forms that we don't even understand, is flawed, because what life means is whatever definition we want to give it. Do we not understand our own definitions?

Right. I’m doubling down on your point. We’re singing in chorus.
