Puppies are also alive in XIV. Also to be clear, Ancients are not real and not comparative to humans outside storytelling purposes. They're humanoid.

My statement you quoted was more of a commentary on the theoritocal that I'd be OK with what happens to Endless happening to me. I wouldn't be OK with it because it results in something not me and not human that seems like me.
Their point is that what you pushed forward as a qualitative measure of the nature of the Endless is inconsistent and insufficient- hence, he applied it to a character in the same universe that we all consider to be alive to show the discrepancy.

This thread is rife with excellent discussion. It really bothers me how the game just... glosses over all of it. No nuance, no discussion, even when our party has so many of the greatest minds in the realm in it.
So much missed potential...
