"Frankly both topics go way beyond the scope of the original thought exercise and stemmed from people like yourself demanding a scientific answer to every little thing (and the answers used, were derived from their research) "
I don't buy this argument dude. He may have been given ideas by other people, but it's his job to trim out what is and isn't necessary. That is what I mean when I say he dug his pit. His lore is a tangled mess precisely because he doesn't pay attention to what he is adding.
It's okay to be critical, but I agree with literally everyone else: you're going too far considering what the topic is. Ryuu doesn't take the lore as "100% all must follow this canon as it is fact!", it's more "I'm having fun making a thing that seems sort of scientifically feasable but I'm not going to get doctorates in biology and chemistry to get everything perfect".
You're arguing "an apple must be red because chemistry and biology stuff" to people who are thinking "it would be cool if an apple was reddish-orange, but we get that it should still be kind of red." Ohgodthatwasaterribleanalogy.
Hmm, you seem to be unaware of what I am getting at. To reuse your metaphor, let me illustrate two examples.
The blue crystalline tree grew orange apples that tasted of an unusual blend of sweetness. (still good! no reason to be bothered by the impossible life)
The arctic blue organic structure that closely parallels a tree, having branches with razor sharp leaves that slice herbivores deeply and shakes occasionally grew various pustules with thin skins and with juice suspended within, yet the sacs having somehow retained a spherical shape with skins that had color that varied between rust and tangerine on the orange spectrum having a mix of citric acid and ethylene glycol in the flavor department, truly making it unique and special in all of the various species that closely relate to plants. (what is even going on here? Is all that detail necessary especially when it contradicts itself?)
The excess detail is what is bogging down the concept, not an extreme adherence to science. In fact, I advise the exact opposite in most cases, unless you are willing to work out the details specifically. The Avali's contradictions are what shape a large portion of my rant.
Harshest critic of the Avali. An idea that never changes is a truly dead one.
