The author isn't advocating for creationism from my read. They're using the story as a metaphor for humanity's role in understanding and categorizing new phenomena. It's a literary device, not a theological statement. The fact that labels can blind us to deeper details is actually quite good, and I would say not necessarily in conflict with the article's point.... doesn't this aligns with the article's argument about how different frameworks can either reveal or obscure different aspects of realitis?
