I'm considering the hovertext and I consider the pounds of bacteria in me to be Me. How are we dividing this out?

You'll have to have a referendum, consulting each bacterium and asking if they identify as part of the collective known as "you" or as an independent organism

Do the bacteria in you consider you to be one of them (so to speak), or are you just a cruise ship?
