... I said at the beginning of this convo that you're fixated on semantics. I clarified that irl both are always hard to disentangle, but conceptually there is still a distinction to me made between factors that are environmental vs genetic. If you concede that the two always work together, which is what I said in the beginning and if what every link you've since posted has said, then you concede that both environmental and genetic influences exist. Even if it's impossible to disentangle them precisely through experiment in every single case.

Keep in mind this entire convo started cause you got pissy when I corrected you that elph was right that there is a distinction between learned behavior and instinct. Please do a frantic Google search to find some click bait pop sci article proclaiming that learned behavior is just instinct since everything is instinct.. professor hawk
