I see you dislike criticism and disagreement, since you deleted my comment. Fair enough. But under your philosophy here-- how can you own your house? It is a rearrangement of existing materials, and it stand (or falls) at the mercy of algorithmic rules of the universe. The ground on which it stands would be at issue, too: How could you (or your landlord) own it? I respect your right to disagree, however when I read something that makes just zero sense to me-- especially when you're attempting to make the idea relevant to pragmatic issues like commerce and making a living-- I feel inclined to comment. I imagine you'll delete this one as quickly as you can, too. I hope your students are able to function in the real world and still pass your class.
