Do you mean to equate here the degree to which something is a person, the degree to which a person is conscious, and the degree to which a person is a creative genius?

That's what it reads like, but perhaps I'm reading too much into your comment.

That seems unjustified to me.

I don't mean to equate them. They're each a rough approximation to the thing I actually care about.
