false assertion on your part about the relative importance of gene and transposable elements in comparative genomics

It's not a false assertion and I actually demonstrated in your own example that the one article in that ToC on comparative genomics used transposable element distribution.

I'm beginning to think you don't quite grasp what a genome actually is.

the one article in that ToC on comparative genomics used transposable element distribution.

It is a flat out lie to claim that only one paper in the issue was on comparative genomics. Almost all of them were.
