The motto of biology should be “Yes, but it is vastly more complicated than that”.

I'm going to repeat this quote because it's worth repeating: “Imagine a flashy spaceship lands in your backyard. The door opens and you are invited to investigate everything to see what you can learn. The technology is clearly millions of years beyond what we can make.” “This is biology.” (Bert Hubert, quoted in “I should have loved biology” https://jsomers.net/i-should-have-loved-biology/ )
