This is literally the only reply that hit the core of the article's problem and of course no one on this site upvoted it lol. The only thing I dislike more than software development posts that use inappropriate analogy from nature to shallowly jump to conclusion, is software development posts that use inappropriate analogy from nature to shallowly jump to conclusion with absolutely flawed understanding of the supposedly analogous natural phenomenon.

And of course, painted turtles (among a few other species) can survive being frozen not because of their cold-bloodedness, but thanks to special antifreeze protein they have. Other lizards (and cold blooded animals for that matter) would just rupture their own tissues upon thawing.
