Apes with this particular set of DNA are presumed to be fully sentient, and apes with a slightly different set are not, even though their behavior is indistinguishable until age 1 (or never, in some cases). Also, to be presumed sentient, you have to be made of meat, not metal. Look, I don’t make the rules, they are universal laws and just happen to affirm my sentience.
