That being said, how does the semblance determine what is debris? Like a chunk of concrete - how does it know that was debris versus part of an art installation piece? How it's determined? When your computer is 5 minutes from dying and you are maybe 3 minutes from falling asleep, you just want the content out.

That being said, not sure, but I think it might have more to do with the mass of the objects or the looseness of it. If you try to move a massive boulder, and it's wedged into the ground, you're not going to be able to use it.

Or, it might have a small bit with sensing where an object cleaved or fractured from it's original source via the molecules that make up the object. Because science.

Living material not being used is more a personal preference concerning morals more than a clear cut, scientifically hypothesized guarantee.

I'll look into editing the post when I have the time, but for now this is what I've got for you.
