I went straight to the poll without a careful enough reading of the post before seeing "non-interacting" specified.

My first interpretation of this is completely non-interacting which has no real value to me (things I can't interact with don't 'exist' for my definition of exist); a copy that I would not interact with on a practical level might have some value to me.

Anyway I answered the poll based on an interactive interpretation so there is at least one misnomer of a result, depending on how you plan to interpret all this.
