I think Miles and Kerry just chose the incorrect words. Not so much that every living thing has Aura, because it's been made clear that Aura needs to be unlocked. Rather, every living thing can have Aura.

Of course, that depends on what you call "living". People don't feel bad at all when slicing a plant to pieces even if they do when doing the same thing to an animal, because while animals are notably alive and often aware of what's going on, plants....well, are not.

Honestly, you could find 2 flowers and you wouldn't know which one is alive and which one is dead unless there are more obvious indications such as one being sliced in half. A plant being alive is like saying a zombie is alive; it's a big stretch and up to interpretation.

So at the very least, every animal can have Aura.
