After mulling over your thought experiment for oh so many weeks, it seems to me apparent that weak AI *must* deviate from organic structure. So I don't know what you mean by "special case", unless you've just begged the question of strong AI.

I don't know if you understand the full ramifications of those false assumptions that I pointed out. I don't know why we/I didn't see them sooner.
