Eh, I think it depends on the elderly. I mean, if you just don't think digital goods ought to be valued the same as physical goods because the production labor has been infinitely reduced to right click -> copy, then it's pretty hard to sell that digital has a one-to-one valence to analogue. In which case, it's pretty hard sell that digital life is conceptually the same as artificial life. I mean, what does "artificial life" even mean when the definition of life requires an organic body? Y'know?

Adults are more likely to question the conceits whereas children just kind of go with it and assumes it makes logical sense.
