Did you miss the weasel words "An argument can be made"? Of course, after using this clause, the writer writes as if the argument that clones are parts of a singular whole was made elsewhere, so he can use that conclusion as an axiom. I agree with you calling this out as sloppy. "Some believe" that all the (science) writers on the WWW need to be subjected to a marathon of "In search of..." episodes so that they have a chance to see how transparent these cliches are.
