What features are these? What is terraforming? The ability to kill everyone with bombs or poison gas or biological organisms? Beavers change the landscape (and atmosphere) as much as most creatures.

If there are no such features, does this refute ID? If these features exist but are not important (and how is importance measured?), would this be a refutation? There doesn't seem to be much testable here.

You ask all of these questions, indicating that you know not of what you speak, and then you finish your post by concluding that there's "not much testable here".

This is indicative of a closemindedness. I'm therefore not sure you're worth the effort. A friend e-mailed me the Julie Thomas essay outlining the terraforming hypothesis. It's over 20 pages, without abstract. I would make the effort to summarize the document if I had any thought that I might not be wasting my time.

What say you?

You have not given an experiment that can distinguish ID from other evolutionary theories. That was my original question. If you do not wish to do so, fine.

If "...ID is not a theory, and ID is not a hypothesis..." what is it's point? Under these conditions, it's not even useless.
