Airo/Hydrodynamics applies to everything. But some things and circumstances
have better Airo/Hydrodynamics than others. Likewise, in order to ever
become a science, Memetics must apply to everything. But likewise, dormancy
is the norm, just like poor Airo/Hydrodynamics.
Some things reproduce or are reproduced, if at all, more ably than others,
genetically, memetically, or by casting shadows, leaving impressions, or
otherwise. Memetics is a special case of Mimetics. Dormancy is the norm.
My formulation is most elegant, if I say so myself.
