A virus isn't an animal, and whether it's alive on its own is debatable. Having a place for the type of living thing whose cells it hijacks to replicate seems like a natural fit. Leave it alone.

Viruses just can't live without infecting anyone. However, many
animals/plants are essentially parasites. What is more, in many cases you
can't decide what is a parasitism, what is a simple symbiosis and what is
just using up natural resources like the sun light.
E.g. we could imagine

guslatna = x1 is a lotus using for its photosynthesis light x2 (e.g. a set
of wavelengths) from the source x3 (the Sun by default).

You can't deny that without light lotuses can't exist.

@adamlopresto Agreed with your observation about viruses however the specifics of that virus can be described in the x2 property.
