Insofar as coding DNA sequences are like computer instructions in that they instruct to replicate proteins, I don't see why it can't be thought of as computational. I get that there is more to it, and I agree that vi is a terrible analogy to CRISPR, but I don't think genomics and turing-model computation are two worlds apart. It is silly to see CRISPR compared to text editing, because it is significantly more restrictive than that. However, by definition genomics and computation share a basis on logic and combinatorics.
