In that case, what are we?
Meat suits hung onto skeleton hangers, obvi.
Or even more foundationally, proteins doing things with fatty membranes.
Basically piles of highly organized goo.

If you want to go deeper, we’re brains hooked up to a spinal system.
The bones and limbs are just bonuses to move our meat vehicle. But they’re not required.
