In order to represent a moving system, you need to use a computer program. The symbolic statements in a computer program represent a moving system. These statements employ special symbols like: IF, AND, OR, IS TRUE, and THEN.
However, a lot of people seem to think that a set of law-of-nature equations, i.e. symbolic statements that represent relationships, are sufficient to represent the real-world moving system.
So, naturally enough, these people might try to straitjacket the quantum behaviour of matter into yet another equation, the Schrödinger equation.
But in fact, the quantum behaviour of matter can only be described by, but not prescribed by, computer programs, not by equations.
So, How Quantum is Life?
Those who think that the real-world moving system is like a set of prescriptive (i.e. deterministic) equations will come up with one answer about the nature of life, but those who think that the real-world moving system is like a set of descriptive computer programs will come up with a different answer about the nature of life.
But it is clear that the quantum behaviour of matter is displaying the IF, AND, OR, IS TRUE, and THEN behaviour that would be expected in a real-world moving system.
