I've responded to that already. As to the accuracy, mine was far more accurate. I described what was--even though humans no longer have yolk in their yolk sac thanks to evolution. But that is a technical point. A clump of cells, a zygote, a fertilized egg--these are all very accurate and neutral. You, however, gave one biased possibility out of thousands of alternatives. Those cells might have been aborted as a clump of hair and teeth--you know the word. They might also have ended up in a sewer drain as an Act of God. There was nothing accurate in your "description" at all. It was narrow and misleading. By sticking to a bare description, I kept my statement relatively accurate--and certainly neutral. As I said, I think your complaint is that it IS neutral. I am certain this bothers you. As to emotionally neutral language on your part, well--you admit to not claiming that for yourself--other than by the implication that is suggestive in your criticism of mine.
