>> ...Pizza crust IS bread. Have you ever made either one? Flour, water, salt, yeast. Maybe a splash of herbs or some other flavor. <<
FFS, Sherlock, no kidding! You’ll note the use of the word, “unqualifiedly” in my first post. It’s bread, but it’s not any bread. You couldn’t slap sauce and cheese on Wonder bread and call it, “pizza.” Pumpkin pie crust is made of those same ingredients; is a pumpkin pie and open-faced sandwich? How about crackers and cheese?
Your guilty of reductionism, here: the belief that something may be adequately described as the sum of its parts.
See this word, here?
“It’s like tasting box wine and claiming that champagne is >>>>just<<<< grape juice.”
Whenever someone uses that word, there’s a good chance they’re about to make the reductionist fallacy.
“The human body is just a combination of a few dollars’ worth of chemicals.”
“The fetus is just a blob of tissue.”
“The Constitution is just a piece of paper.”
