And yet the operative fact is that a human could not execute those calculations in a lifetime.

So what? Doesn't change the facts. There is no child here. There is a set of deterministic calculations written by some people, and executed.

I agree with EliRivers.
I'm pretty sure that if I wrote a child from scratch (AGCTTAACGGUAA ... etc), understood the underlying mechanisms connecting proteins to wining a baseball tournament ... I should get some credit for the win :)
There is no insight in making a child (can be done totally drunk and half passed out), although there is some in education.
