Exist to exist? I'm certainly not saying that. The point of existence is to create something more coherent. Fields form particles, particles form atoms, atoms form molecules, molecules form cells, cells form beings, beings form collectives, collectives form unions. Look to history on that one. Like you said, it is nothing new, just a fact. Currently it seems the Genome has rather large ambitions than "meat". It needs a transitional jump to future existence. To me it looks like it is doing that pretty damn well.
