Which makes one sort of wonder why he fails to grasp/explain why the 
scaffolding, gears, wheels, pullies, etc. are all arranged in a DNA 
strand such that one, to use an architecture analogy, one is required to 
rearrange all the parts of the house, to open the door, since neither 
the door, the entry, the hallway, the living room, nor the roof, are 
arranged in such a manner as to be actually connected, or part of the 
same structure at all, until you remove all the "scaffolding" from 
between them, and crank the wheels, gears, and things, to cram it all 
back into something that actually functions. lol

So, yeah. Its either disingenuous that he doesn't "notice" these sorts 
of things, or he is like some guy that plots a long, complex, and 
absolutely effective, escape from the mental hospital, while imagining 
that he has invisible friends, who are watching the guards for him, is 
casting magic spells on the locks, and needs to get out, before the 
space aliens implant his brain in yet another body that doesn't belong 
to him.
