Who's copping out? I find your charge of polysemy to be malglico, and your
arguments unconvincing. I understand that you might argue that no part of
a networked computer is a neuron, under a non-metaphorical definition of
the English term "neuron". But that has nothing to do with Lojban and
little to do with nirna.
