Maybe molecular biology is a place to start. I don't think we would call proteins life, or any of the moving things within a cell. Though I love those little kinesin guys. We have all those moving parts, non of the "alive" and yet as a whole cell we have lie."Emergent things are simply flim-flam. "
Not really. If i buy all the parts to build a motorbike, none of those parts will be labelled speed or have an attribute of speed. However once I put all the parts together correctly, the resultant motorbike will have a property or attribute called 'speed' that emerges once it starts to operate.
Emergent properties are real things, not flim flam.
It is however possible to confuse something as emergent that may not be but emergence is a real thing.
