despite the show emphatically saying that the simulations kept repeatedly failing.

Which I already said is odd because it means their computers aren't any faster than today's computers. If Disco was set in 2025, I could understand why they couldn't simulate protein folding with enough accuracy. But this is set in the future where they can record every atom with such perfection (Heisenberg compensator) that every atom in a person's DNA is routinely read, transported across thousands of miles and reconstructed perfectly.

The network required a living construct to engage with. I already said there would need to be a physical interface between the computer and the mycelial network.

You’re arguing in bad faith I had already addressed every point that you repeated. The only one ignoring what I wrote is you.

Don't take Trek so seriously. It's just a show. It's ok to point out holes.
