it's merely a different way to lay down the explanations.

it's not "in fact" like you say; you merely provide an alternative way to understand what's going on and to describe it.

it's incorrect to claim that either is wrong because of the other.

in the end, we gotta learn to have multiple ways to explain the same things and it's best to shift between these 'theories' of what is going on as it serves our purposes. It's stupid to have this alternatives "fighting each other"; see? I just have agency to the ways to conceptualize, understand, and explain phenomena.

When it comes to viruses, I think it is important to understand that they simply replicate because they can. The virus has no interest in keeping you alive or killing you; it just infects cells and that’s it.
