Whether viruses are classified as life or not doesn't matter and wouldn't change anything. The important and interesting thing is that viruses probably evolved from cells.

All personal experiences aside, the conclusion is that cyst squeezed hypothalamus which resulted in malfunctioning. Or in short, "Malfunction of compressed brain tissue". What is the reason for that? Are neurons somehow discharged

The conclusion is entirely not based on results from this study, if it can be called a proper study. What can be told from the abstract, is that sample size is extremely small (19 individuals), there don't seem to be any control parame

It's still a made up problem. I'd just say "my target audience is that and that and I don't care about edge cases until they come up". Get's the job done and prevents wasting effort on imaginary problems.

This is an example of overthinking and overcomplicating a task and focusing on edge cases. Not even 80-20, more like 99.8-0.02. 40th point perfectly sums it up - an edge case for feral people, slave in Sudan and someone born and left. One t
